Büyük baştankara / Great Tit / Parus major

My near friend :)

The Great Tit (Parus major) is a passerine bird in the tit family Paridae. It is a widespread and common species throughout Europe in any sort of woodland. It is resident, and most Great Tits do not migrate. In the past this species was considered a ring species with several subspecies covering a wide distribution, but these have now been separated.

Description :
The Great Tit is easy to recognize, large in size at 14 cm, with a broad black line (broader in the male) down its otherwise yellow chest. The neck and head are black with white cheeks and ear coverts. Upper parts are olive. It has a white wingbar and outer tail feathers. Young birds ae duller.

Voice :
It is, like other tits, a vocal bird, and has a large variety of calls, of which the most familiar is a "teacher, teacher", also likened to a squeaky wheelbarrow wheel. In the First Movement of Bruckner's 4th Symphony several Great Tit songs are strung together in a very realistic manner. Interestingly, Great Tits from the two south Asian groups of races do not recognize the calls of the temperate Great Tits, and they may be a separate species.

Regards,
Bedri....

Hallo Bedri
This is a great photo with details clearly visible and well displayed. Great focus, sharpness and framing. Image presented in a superb manner. This is a very nice shot of a beautiful bird that I have seen many times before but never stop to amaze me for its beauty. The colours and patterns on the plumage are really a special selection. Thanks for sharing. Kind regards
Anna

Bu fotoğrafınız bana çekebilene her yerde her fonda güzel çekiliri kanıtlıyor. Yanlız çok beğendiğim baştankara fotoğraflarınız hep o çantada taşınan ve söz dinleyen bir baştankaraya mı aitti :))))
Çok selam.
