Everyone loves to wake up in the morning in a great mood. Sounds are the first thing that bursts into their consciousness and creates the very mood that charges with positive or negative for the whole day.
Delicate, melodic sounds act peacefully on the human psyche, while sharp, loud and heavy sounds, on the contrary, injure and annoy.
Tit tweets
This situation is quite another matter: before you finally wake up, through the slumber you can hear a gentle breeze of the breeze outside the window and a sonorous, beautiful, poured melody. It begins with a light, intermittent whistling, and then, without feeling obstacles, scatters in all directions with beautiful twitter and various blue - zin - tans. A person who has heard these sounds wakes up with joy in his heart.
Nature itself sent him vigor and joy on this day. I want to get up, run to the window and see the miracle that she can sing so well. And everyone who is not too lazy to do this will definitely see a small, yellow titmouse. Yes, yes, it is she (or rather, he, the male) that is so beautifully and positively poured under the window, and tells her wonderful life story. Let's try to find out what a thin-tit titmouse can tell about itself.
Tits in winter
These little birds live almost everywhere: in forests, taiga, in open areas, along the banks of rivers and lakes, but especially prefer the proximity to humans. Tits are not migratory birds, therefore they have to overcome all difficulties and severity of winters together with other local feathered neighbors. So they adjoin other types of birds, creating motley flocks, and wander in search of food in the forest.
If it gets really cold and hungry, tits move to live closer to human habitation. They need the help of people, and people, in turn, must feed them and build feeders. In addition to feeding troughs, it is also necessary to build titmouses, as these birds do not build their nests, but use alien abandoned nests or hollow trees.
Tit food
They can pour raw sunflower seeds into the trough, which they love very much and prefer to any mixture of grain. Tits - gourmets: each chooses the largest seed, takes it carefully and flies off to the side, giving the other titmouse the opportunity to choose the seed they like, and leave them tasteless food to other birds, who also come to eat.
Our friends are mostly peaceful, get along with many birds, do not enter into fights, but if necessary, they can also stand up for themselves. Tits are also very attentive and cautious, which is probably why they are less likely to fall into the claws of cats than their neighbors - sparrows.
With all their caution, these birds are very curious and a patient bird lover can even feed them by hand. But only if the birds will not be afraid and get used to the person, knowing that he always brings them food and does no harm. For this, they will thank not only with their songs and pleasant communication, but also with the fact that, getting used to the feeding place, in the summer these beauties will destroy insects harmful to planting. And it is popularly believed that the neighborhood of the titmouse is always fortunate.By listening to how this little creature creates such a delightful morning, you begin to realize that people are always right.
