We should write a book explaining why. Include photos
Obviously they’re envious of the European Great Tits.
Don’t confuse me with math! Most of the pics in search were single birds.
It could be hair; most women keep more hair than men do and will have a different silhouette.

Knowing obesity rates in women versus men, those birds knew they were far less likely to get fed.
