Sparrows of the wetland park

Willow cricket

In the spring, the willow dog has a white collar and a black head, throat and upper chest. In autumn and winter, it resembles a female, which is brown mottled and striped all over, only the belly is white. The willow warbler's song is modest, a little stuttering and slow.

Willow bird

The willow bird, or oven bird, is our most common bird, which nests all over the country. The greenish-brown little bird is easy to recognize based on its voice, which is a bit finch-like, but softly mournful.

Blue tit

The blue tit is smaller than the tall tit. Its main coat is bright blue. The blue tit nests in deciduous forests and parks in a hole in a tree or in a hole, or it can dig a hole itself. In winter, the blue tit is a common visitor to birding boards.

Wood grouse

The wood grouse hides in the foliage. Its best distinguishing feature is the song, which is a full, joyful laver. The wood grouse is a common species in deciduous forests.
