Bluebird Luscinia svecica belongs to the family of flycatchers, a close relative of the nightingale. In size, it is no larger than a sparrow but is more slender and elegant.The length of this bird's body is 15 cm with a weight of about 15-20 g. Gracefulness is given by elongated legs, and the bright coloration of males delights the observer.As far back as the 18th century, the famous systematist Carl Linnaeus described the bluerbird, calling it the Swedish nightingale.The name "bluebird" comes from the Old Russian word "varakat'", meaning "to talk nonsense, mimic, tease."In our forests, it is hard to meet such an attractive and brightly colored bird, marked by refined elegance.The most attractive part of the male's plumage is the blue bib, edged with brown and reddish stripes. In the center of the bib, there is a reddish spot, which is white in the western subspecies of these birds.#wildlife 🆔 @science_magazine
