La piccola Cincia mora (Parus ater) e’ un passeraceo stanziale che rimane in Finlandia anche in inverno e che spesso e volentieri viene a cibarsi alle nostre mangiatoie. Noi la osserviamo con piacere.
E’ veramente minuscola: lunga 11 cm, pesa solo 8-10 grammi; si ciba di insetti in estate e di semi, pinoli o granaglie che trova in inverno. Guardate quant’e’ carina!
In finnico si chiama: Kuusitiainen; letteralmente: la cincia degli abeti.

The Coal tit.
The small Coal Tit (Parus ater) is a nonmigratory passerine bird that remains in Finland even in winter and that often comes to feed at our feeders. We watch it with pleasure.
It is really tiny: 11 cm long, its weigh is just 8-10 grams; it feeds on insects in summer and on seeds, pine nuts or seeds in winter. Isn’t it pretty?
In Finnish its name is: Kuusitiainen; that is: the Spruce tit.

Delightful pictures. Your coal tit looks very similar to our Chickadee, who is also nonmigratory. They are a favorite at our winter bird feeder. They will fly in, grab a black oil sunflower seed, and carry it deep into the branches of our lilac bush to enjoy.

They are so colorful and show up so well with the snowy background. At least it didn’t fly away before you got the photos! Very nice!
