🦉 The Eurasian nuthatch or wood nuthatch (Sitta europaea asiatica)

  • Sitta sittē (Greek) mentioned by Aristotle and other ancient Greek. by the authors of the bird, something similar to the woodpecker
  • europaea (lat.) European
  • asiatica (lat.) Asian

Like the bird from the previous post, this friend lives in the same places, and you can meet him in different forests and in city parks. It is enough to stretch out your hand with a treat, as these birds will sit in it without any questions to treat themselves to seeds and nuts. Moreover, if they are in a shell, then he will carefully crack it with his beak, inserting it somewhere in a crevice in the bark of a tree, and then the obtained food either

This fellow is quite greedy by nature. He doesn't act like the other birds at the feeder. He pushes everyone else aside and then tries to stuff his beak with as much food as he can carry.
