Beautiful feathered creatures are a true adornment of our animal world. Only now they die quite often. And the reason for this is often the general carelessness. How to fence them off from this?
Instructions
Step 1
Take good care of bird nests. If you are walking through the forest and spot a nest, walk a long distance around it. After all, if you frighten off the hen, then she may no longer return to her own children. Also, move your dog away from the nest.
Step 2
Do not chop down trees if they have nests with chicks. Even if you only want to cut down one branch, you can greatly scare the feathered inhabitants. And then the parent birds will leave their nest, leaving their offspring to fend for themselves.
Step 3
Never get chicks out of their nests. Smelling your scent from the chick, the mother may mistake him for a stranger and stop feeding or even kill him.
Step 4
If you start a fire during a picnic or a walk, do not leave the area until you are sure that it is safely extinguished.
Step 5
In the spring, build various birdhouses and nests for birds that build their nests in the hollows of trees. These are starlings, tits and many others. Birdhouses are placed five meters above the ground, out of reach of predators.
Step 6
Feed the birds in the winter. For this purpose, the most reliable and convenient way is to hang out special feeders. They are made easily and even from improvised materials, and are placed in places inaccessible to cats.
Step 7
Plant trees and various dense shrubs. It is in them that birds love to build their nests. It can be rose hips, acacia or hawthorn.
Step 8
Get involved in nature reserves. The importance of such protected areas for the animal world is enormous.
Step 9
Remember the restrictions on the extermination of certain types of birds. These restrictions depend on the season of the year and the rarity of the species. Follow these rules.
Step 10
Take care of the wounded birds you find. Hand them over to veterinarians or to special reserves.
Step 11
Teach your children about the right attitude towards birds. Only the education of future generations will help ensure the safety of birds for a long time.
