Postcard from Estonia.

The Blue Tit is one of the most colorful birds in Estonia.Its bright coloring makes it easy to recognize even from a distance. 

Interestingly, the sulfurous yellow coloring on the back and belly directly results from eating yellow-green caterpillars 

that eat carotene-loaded plant leaves. In addition to caterpillars, they eat millipedes, beetles, aphids, and fly larvae. 

At your bird feeder, they’ll favor high-protein items like nuts and suet. Gardeners like them for eating certain destructive moths and aphids that would otherwise damage their flowers or crops. 

Thank you Kaisa for the beautiful bird card with nice stamps.
