In the cool conifer forests and winter gardens of Eurasia, these streaked green nomads swirl through branches with lively chatter. They feed on alder seeds, conifer cones, and tiny buds, hanging acrobatically as they tease food from narrow scales. What makes them extraordinary is their nomadic rhythm — roaming widely in response to seed crops, they spread plant life across vast regions while stitching distant forests together. Small, social, and endlessly mobile, bright sparks of movement in the northern woods.
