Hello Steemians! This time I show you photos and a video of a 'great tit' (Parus major), which again and again is looking for food and then returns bringing small insects, spiders or worms to its offspring.
My main interest is known to be insects, but they are not the only ones suffering from human intervention in nature. Increasingly sterile landscapes and gardens without a sufficient number of flowering plants mean that useful insects such as bees and bumblebees lack food sources. In addition, we are still using pesticides and other environmental toxins far too often.
To contribute to the survival of the songbirds, we have hanged a 'nesting hole' made of wood concrete (which is stable enough to protect the young birds from woodpeckers) in our hazel. More interesting information about great tits can be found at this page (German text). |
Hallo Steemians! Diesmal zeige ich euch Fotos und ein Video von einer 'Kohlmeise' (Parus major), die immer wieder zum Futtersuchen aufbricht, um dann mit Nahrung (meist kleinen Insekten, Spinnen oder Würmern) zu ihren Jungen zurückzukehren.
Mein Hauptinteresse gilt bekanntermaßen Insekten, aber nicht nur sie leiden unter den Eingriffen des Menschen in die Natur. Durch immer sterilere Landschaften und Gärten ohne eine hinreichende Anzahl an Blütenpflanzen fehlt es nützlichen Insekten wie Bienen und Hummeln an Nahrungsquellen. Dazu kommen von uns noch immer viel zu oft eingesetzte Pflanzenschutzmittel und andere Umweltgifte.
Um etwas zum Überleben der Singvögel beizutragen, haben wir unter anderem eine 'Nisthöhle' aus Holzbeton (die stabil genug ist, um die Jungvögel vor Spechtschlägen zu schützen) in unseren Haselnussbaum gehängt. Weitere interessante Informationen über Kohlmeisen findet ihr auf dieser Seite. |

As the DLive video doesn't work anymore, I replaced it by the Bit.Tube version:
'Great tit' coming home with some food. | Kohlmeise kommt mit Futter nach Hause. |
Schöner Artikel 👍

It’s great that you provided a “nesting hole” for these songbirds. Ah! You are very kind, not only to those insects in your garden, but also to these songbirds. So, you receive great benefits from them in return; i.e. you can enjoy seeing them and listening their sweet songs directly from your garden.
The bird is very cute and beautiful.
It looks really nice and refreshing atmosphere in your garden that I can touch while watching your video.
Thanks so much for sharing your video with us. ;)

Man könnte ihr ewig zuschauen, wie sie unermüdlich ein und aus fliegt. Das hat was Meditatives.
Könnte man einen Nistkasten auch unter dem Fenster an einer Hauswand anbringen? Gibt es Vogelarten, die das annehmen würden? Die Wand zeigt aber Richtung Süden und im Sommer scheint relativ lang die Sonne darauf und es us daher ziemlich heiß manchmal. Das merken wir ja auch in unserer Bruthöhle - ahm - Wohnung ... 😅

Hm, manche Vögel nisten ja auf Dächern, aber dass es sinnvoll ist, eine zu sehr der Sonne ausgesetzte Stelle zu wählen, bezweifle ich ...

Sehr lobenswert, dass Du Dich so intensiv um die Natur in Deiner direkten Umgebung kümmerst.
Wenn man bei der Auswahl der Pflanzen für den heimischen Garten auf ihre Eignung als Insektenweide achtet (z.B. Taubnessel für Bienenartige, Schmetterlingsblütler für bestimmte Schmetterlingsarten etc.), kann man eine durchaus beachtliche Anzahl an Insekten in seinen Garten einladen, denen natürlich auch ihre Fressfeinde (wie z.B. Vögel) folgen...

Sehr schön zu sehen, dass dieses künstliche Quartier von der Kohlmeisenfamilie als Brutplatz angenommen wird. Die Nisthöhle scheint direkt mit dem Baum verwachsen zu sein.
Dem lebhaften Gezwitscher nach dürften sich die Bewohner dort sehr wohlfühlen, zumal es in eurem Garten auch nicht an natürlichem Nahrungsangebot mangeln dürfte.

Ein naturnaher Artikel, den ich mit großer Freude gelesen und gesehen habe Herzlich Dank dafür!
Je weiter nördlich wir reisen, desto zahlreicher sind die Vögelbestände. Ob morgens oder abends immer zwitschert es in unserer Umgebung und ich darf täglich Zeuge werden vom Schauspiel der Natur =) Ob ich mir nur einbilde, dass es mehr Vögel sind oder ob das wirklich so ist, kann ich nicht genau sagen. Doch was mir ebenso auffällt, dass wir hier viel mehr Insekten haben. Trotz Nässe und Kälte. die Artenvielfalt ist einfach eindrücklich und sollte in jedem Land geschützt werden!
Beste Grüße aus dem Norden

That's so nice of you to hang that nesting hole for those birds. I really love the fact that you care for our environment. That's something that we should be doing now, taking care of the environment. We should not wait for it to degrade until the damages that we cause will become irreversible. Thank you for sharing this information with us. I was even looking if these types of birds exist here in the Philippines haha. Have a great day!

"If you look closely, you can see a part of a young bird's wide open beak in the third photo."
Yes, in the bird house. You captured these moments nicely and you built a good, safe "nesting hole" for them.
I am sure they will enjoy the safety, but this will not contribute much to their survival, if they don't have enough food.

The bird has a beautiful nest. In which we can save the bird. Their species may not be extinct.

But there are thousands of other birds that are at the brink of extinction @ahlawat and this explains why @thegreens created the @biodiversity blog to raise awareness about endangered and endemic species.

Unfortunately I can't watch your video because the video is not open, maybe in my place of residence there is a signal interference problem

wao, it is true not only the insects suffer from human intervention, due to the thousands of insecticides that we leave in the environment for the protection of our plants
These insects have a daily survival struggle, where hungry birds are one of their biggest enemies.
good work you have done a great greeting @ jaki01
from venezuela you are appreciated your post about insects
