The great tit up close
I always love to see this beautiful songbird in action.
With its black crown and yellow breast, this bird is easy to recognize.
Great tits breed in already existing burrows in trees, stubs, poles and nesting boxes. The latter feature makes the species a particularly valued study object for scientists for more than a century.
The menu during the breeding season consists of a wide spectrum of larvae and puppets of insects. The food for the boy mainly includes caterpillars and spiders.
