🦉 The long-tailed tit or long-tailed bushtit (Aegithalos caudatus)
- Aegithalos (Greek): tit
- caudatus (lat.): tailed
These small white balls with a protruding long tail live in the forests all year round. But in summer they are quite difficult to see. They are very silent at this time and secretive. And they can only be discovered when their fledglings grow up and they show them the world, teaching them everything they know.
In the fall, “family” flocks are formed consisting of parents, their children, as well as their helpers, that is, those who helped the couple feed their children. Yes, there are cases when one couple for some reason does not have offspring, and then they help other couples with their children.
