Большая синица (лат. Parus major) — самая крупная синица, встречающаяся в России.

Размером она примерно с воробья и имеет довольно яркое оперение. Голова, горло, полоса вдоль груди и подхвостье чёрные, крылья и хвост голубоватые, спинка жёлто-зелёная или голубовато-серая, брюшко чаще жёлтое, а щёки и пятно на затылке белые. Большая синица широко распространена в смешанных и лиственных лесах, парках и садах. Отличается чрезвычайной подвижностью и ловкостью.
Эта синица — птица осёдлая, кочует лишь местами.

Снимала в Аптекарском огороде. Мы часто туда ходим гулять. Надеюсь, что удовольствие от встречи было взаимным. У нас - от общения, у птахи - от вкусных семечек

The Great Tit, Parus major, is a passerine bird in the tit family Paridae. It is a widespread and common species throughout Europe and Asia in any sort of woodland. It is resident, and most birds do not migrate.
It is an easy tit to recognise, large in size at 14 cm, with a broad black line (broader in the male) down its otherwise yellow front. The neck and head are black with white cheeks and ear coverts. Upperparts are olive. It has a white wingbar and outer tail feathers. In young birds the black is replaced by brown, and the white by yellow.

There are many races of this widespread species, but they fall into three groups. Birds in temperate Europe and Asia are essentially green above and yellow below. Great Tits in China, Korea, Japan and southeastern Russia are green above and white or yellow-tinged white below, and birds in India and south-east Asia are grey above and whitish below.

It is, like other tits, a vocal bird, and has a large variety of calls, of which the most familiar is a “teacher, teacher”, also likened to a squeaky wheelbarrow wheel. Interestingly, the birds from the two south Asian groups of races do not recognise the calls of the temperate Great Tits, and they may be a separate species.
