probably, each of you who had to leave the noisy city in winter, visit suburban summer cottages, admired the beautiful red-breasted bullfinches. In the winter months, bullfinches keep close to human dwellings and roads. In summer, the secretive bullfinch is hard to see. In autumn and winter, bullfinches feed on the seeds of thorny plants growing near garden and garden fences, in deep roadside ditches. Quiet, melodic modest song of a bullfinch. I really love the red-breasted bullfinches, clearly visible on the white tablecloth of winter roadside snows.
I have had to keep bullfinches in cages more than once. They quickly get used to the person, easily endure captivity. It is pleasant to listen to the quiet song of the bullfinch in the room.
I remember that in ancient times a cage with a bullfinch hung in the room of my little daughters: Arinushka and Alyonushka. To the singing of the snowman, they were going to school, fed him hemp seeds and grated carrots. The bullfinch was looked after by my grandmother, my mother, a village woman, for whom caring for the bullfinch replaced the usual peasant work. We loved our bullfinch very much. He freely flew around the room, bathed in a bath placed on the floor, flew himself into the cage, where food was prepared for him; never seemed to get bored.
Good bullfinches in the wild. On a bright winter day, somewhere near a hedge or in dense bushes, on the branches of a wild rose or viburnum, bullfinches sit down with large red beads. They are almost not afraid of a person passing by. The bullfinch is our Russian bird. Bullfinches do not make long journeys to warm countries, they remain to winter in their native places, flying only over short distances.
It is easy for an experienced birder to catch a gullible bullfinch in autumn and winter. If you have a bullfinch living in a cage, be gentle with him, never scare him, and he will get used to you very much, he will rejoice at the arrival of the owner, sit on his shoulder. Bullfinches can live in a cage for many years, apparently not yearning for freedom at all.
In the spring, when the nesting of forest birds begins, the bullfinches, of course, are a little melancholy, sitting dejectedly in the cage. But what can you do? It is risky to release birds that have lived in cages for a long time: they have lost the habit of getting their own food, finding friends and building nests.
In a large cage-aviary, some birds caught in the forest, with appropriate care, make nests and take out their children. Now there are few lovers of indoor birds and bird singing. Small living birds have been replaced by bulky televisions. In the past, there were many lovers of songbirds. Overseas canaries, cheerful siskins and beautiful goldfinches were kept in cages. With skillful care, they feel good in captivity. Perhaps, of all indoor songbirds, I especially loved the modest bullfinches. I also admired how near the winter road in free will, flying from bush to bush, my bullfinch friends whistle. I wanted to greet them, wish them good luck.
In the old park, which begins outside the fence of our house, there is a maple alley. Bullfinches visit there every day, they are beckoned by trees, completely strewn with light winged seeds.
Birds sit on maple trees importantly, calmly, slowly pecking golden seeds. And how good! The bullfinch's chest is scarlet. The back is blue, and on the head is a black beret.
"Wah-wah-wah!" - is distributed in frosty silence. Bullfinches sing with the whole flock: both ruddy festive males and modestly dressed females. My grandfather called their singing "the silver harp of winter."
From time to time the birds dive into the snow, bathe in it, draw grooves and traces-crosses.
From the word "snow" the name is given to the bird - "bullfinch". And for good reason: bullfinches are the first heralds of winter.
Once under New Year I was given a snowman. He lived in a spacious wooden cage with a round top. For a long time he whistled a monotonous, simple tune, and then creaked like sleigh runners in the snow, and pounded on the perches with his thick beak, as if he were hammering in nails. For this habit, we called him Grishka the Blacksmith.
As soon as my grandfather or I approached the window sill where the cage stood, the bullfinch lifted his black beret on his head, starting to jump briskly from perch to perch and whistle.
Rowan, crushed pine nuts, pieces of apple he took from his hands. It will approach sideways and sedately take a delicacy directly from the palm of your hand.
On Sundays we let the bullfinch fly around the room, Sometimes he sat on grandfather's shoulder. And in the evening he himself flew into the cage or took a fancy to himself a secluded corner on deer antlers.
In March, when the snow in the yard began to darken, the sky turned blue, and drops rang on the eaves of our house, my grandfather and I removed the cage from the windowsill and headed to the park. We found the treasured bullfinch place in the maple alley and opened the door. At first, Grishka Kuznets glanced around apprehensively, but soon he heard his native voices, jumped through the door and took off on a maple tree with a light diving flight. He stroked his feathers, fluffed out his chest and set to work - he began to peel the winged seeds.
Bullfinches friendly accepted him into their flock, which was soon going to leave our lands and migrate to the northern forests ...
In the mornings I often wake up from an early bullfinch wake-up call. It's twilight in the room, it's fresh, and outside the window you can hear the call; "Wa-wah-wah"...
I listen to a mournful song full of sadness and tenderness, and a snow-covered old park, a maple alley, a flock of red-breasted bullfinches rise before my eyes ...
Where are you now, our Grishka Kuznets?!
In autumn, before I seal the windows, I put bunches of red rowan, hawthorn, yellow maple leaves between the frames. When the wind begins to scratch the glass with bare branches, and the rain drums loudly on the roof, the maple leaves at times seem to come to life and tinkle a little audibly.
One Sunday morning I was sitting at the table, reading a book, The revived maple leaves reminded me of the drowsy silence of the forest, decorated with lemon-yellow, brown, cherry colors.
Suddenly there was a light knock on the window. Who could it be? I look ... and this is a bullfinch granted. Red-breasted, important, magnificent, with a black beret on his head. Well, right Grishka Kuznets! He clung to the frame with his paws, as if pressed against the glass, and froze, as if drawn in the picture.
“Knock ... knock ... knock ...” - he squinted his eye - he noticed the mountain ash, but he doesn’t know how to get it.
I got up from the table to throw a bunch of berries to the bird, and the bullfinch was already gone. I started reading the book again.
An hour or two went by unnoticed. It began to get dark quickly.
In the evening I went out into the garden. It was getting cold. Snowflakes slowly swirled in the air, as if the leaf fall continued, however, now not autumn, fair, red, green and yellow, but timid, winter, blue and white.
And it seemed to me that the gloomy, leafless garden was transformed, as if rejuvenated.
Hello winter! - I said. - The bullfinch reported to me about your arrival in the morning!
NUTS ON BIRD
During the night, the rain drummed loudly on the roof. A gusty wind bent branches, cracked and creaked tree trunks.
With dawn the rain stopped. The sun imperceptibly broke through a chain of gray clouds. Starlings sang under the windows. In their farewell songs, joy and sadness are heard.
Yegorka ran out of the house. He jumped along the path, leaving footprints in the sand. Stopped near the gate. The fence bent bird cherry. Old, hollow, she fell down, as if lying down to rest.
Yegorka shook the wet, rough trunk, as if asking the tree: “Stop lying down, get up!” Suddenly, from somewhere, nuts fell on him; one...another...third...
Grandpa! called Yegor. - Nuts have grown on the bird cherry!
There is an elder in the garden, an uncle in Kyiv, - the grandfather answered from the apiary. - In the morning, for some reason, the alarm clock began to disassemble and broke ... Now the nuts on the bird cherry?
Slowly, grandfather approached the fence, like a doctor, felt and examined the tree. He put the twig into the hollow - and nuts appeared on his wide wrinkled palm ...
Miracles are happening in the world ... - Grandfather shrugged.
Suddenly, a red squirrel jumps right along the grass towards the bird cherry tree. He noticed uninvited guests, stood up on his hind legs, and how angry he was, how he clattered: “By what right do you take my nuts?”
The grandfather beckoned to his grandson and put his finger to his lips. They hid with Yegorka behind the currant bushes.
The squirrel calmed down, slowly began to approach the bird cherry. He jumps, stops, stretches his neck - he smells the air.
He grabs a nut with his teeth and - with an arrow back.
Today the animal feeds the day for a year, - said the grandfather. - Winter is coming. It is necessary to keep up with the snow in the new storeroom to carry the supplies.
FOREST CLONES
The wind whistles through the forest, throws snow shawls off the branches. But then the wind died down, and in the frosty silence a song rang out, thin, something like a mosquito squeak. I glanced at the furry firs. And here are the singers themselves - tiny birds. They scurry among the branches, swarm, look out for something ... One singer separated from the flock, raised his golden tuft. According to the crest, exactly according to the crown, they gave him the name - the kinglet!
The kinglet is the smallest bird in our forest, it weighs only five grams. And how agile! He won’t sit still for a second: he will stick his sharp beak into every crack in the bark, into every crack. In the north, it was nicknamed "forest carnation". All the same, the “carnation” will check: if a sleepy bug has hidden somewhere for the winter, if the pupa or larva has been buried, or maybe you’re lucky, and a treasure of silkworm eggs will open.
My friend, an actor from the Perm theater, had four kinglets in the winter. He made an aviary for them, placed a nest box there and decorated it with fresh fir branches. He fed his pets crushed pine nuts, cottage cheese and eggs; the birds felt good, were cheerful and funny. A friend called them "my pranksters."
Once I looked into his light and found an unusual picture. Vitaly Ivanovich rehearsed a new role, walked with measured steps from the kitchen to his office, and the pranksters followed him on his heels. When he began to try on a magnificent wig in front of the mirror, the birds fearlessly landed on his head and immediately drowned in gray hair. Only my loud sudden laughter made them leave such a high and magnificent throne. But the pranksters were not at a loss, they immediately found a new business for themselves - they found an old down pillow on the sofa and began to pull out feathers and scatter them around the room. After all, "forest carnations" cannot live without work!
