Birdwatching - 3062 🐦

šŸ¦‰ The long-tailed tit or long-tailed bushtit (Aegithalos caudatus)

  • Aegithalos (Greek): tit
  • caudatus (lat.): tailed

If birds were soft toys, this bird would be a favorite. tiny body (weighs about the same as a teaspoon of sugar!), and a tail twice as long. From a distance, it looks like a white fluffy ball with a branch sticking out. This shape has earned it the nickname "long-tailed tit", although it is not a true tit - more like an eccentric cousin.

These birds are the embodiment of collectivism. They live in flocks of several individuals, sleep together, tightly pressed together, and even feed chicks together, and this applies not only to their relatives, but also to other couples.

One of the cutest birds I have ever seen. I found by chance a nest of a long-tailed tit in the park. My pictures were not so good, but I managed to capture the bird getting in and out of the nest.
