Pretty Female Blue Tits Keep their Mates


The Blue Tit is a small passerine bird in the tit family Paridae. The bird is easily recognizable by its brilliant blue and yellow plumage. Throughout Europe and western Asia, the blue tit is one of the most colorful birds to engage in their annual hormone-driven mating spectacle. Not unlike some among their human counterparts, male blue tits lose interest when their female mates’ beauty starts fading, staying out longer and neglecting their offspring, a new research report said in the journal of Frontiers in Zoology. Scientists who dulled the bright blue head tinge that crowns the female of the species, subsequently noticed the males skulking off for more alone time and making fewer trips to feed their chicks.
