november 12 - sinichki day

In Russia, there was a belief that by this time tits, anticipating the rapid cold, fly from the forests closer to human housing and waiting for help. People noticed that if the birds appeared in flocks at the house, then the frost is about to burst.

These small birds with bright plumage leave no one indifferent. It is only necessary to see how the nimble bird tenaciously holds on to the edge of the feeder, shakes feathers, as if shook off from the cold, and the soul immediately becomes lighter. You can make a dining room for them from the simplest things that can be found in any house, for example, from an orange. It will make a real cozy cup for blues.

Famous radio presenter of Karelia Olga Blok told how she feeds birds.

We have a new cat TV at home. As a child, my grandmother always hung bacon in the kitchen window in winter. I remember drinking tea and pushing blues behind the glass. It was so cozy.

From November, the feeding season begins. I do not remove all the berries from the bushes, I leave them feathered. But the most interesting thing happens in the window.

We hung a transparent feeder on suction cups on the window. And this is not just a feeder, but a real live TV! Our cat sits for hours with her ears pinned down and watches this tits series. And I often do that myself. It's such a relaxation.

Feeding the birds is a good thing. In the winter they need our help. And then he attached a feeder to the glass - and you are already a savior, Olga said.
