This small, dark-colored tit prefers coniferous forests, but can sometimes be found in mixed forests. And in winter, during migrations, they can fly into cities and visit feeders. Unfortunately in my city this is extremely rare.

But with the onset of spring, they appear in the forests until the end of spring. And they can be heard very well, because at this time the males actively and loudly sing songs.
With the arrival of summer, the birds seem to disappear, or rather the main part of them, a minority remains to live, and as expected in areas of the forest where there are coniferous trees.
