🦉 The lesser whitethroat (Curruca curruca)
- curruca - is an unidentified bird name mentioned in poems by the ancient Roman poet Juvenal
These birds are few in number in the forests of my city, unlike their close relative - the common whitethroat. They are very similar in appearance, and to distinguish them by appearance, you need to look at the color of the legs. In this species, they are dark. And in general, the plumage is more contrasting.
They live everywhere where there are bushes. I have met them in mixed forests, along the coastline, and every year at the beginning of Ibn I hear the voices of these birds in my yard.
