  1. RE: mastodon.nl/@kunst_landschap/1

    Vroege Vogels - BNNVARA: #Avifauna haalde de eieren naar Alphen aan den Rijn waar ze achter de schermen in een speciaal opgezet #broedcentrum, met volières, worden uitgebroed. "En met succes. Dagelijks komen er gruttokuikens uit het ei." bnnvara.nl/vroegevogels/artike

  2. Finally installed 9 nesting boxes for the common swift! / Endlich haben wir 9 Mauersegler Nistkästen installiert.

    If you look to the right, you will see a stove vent hole. For about six years, this hole has served as a nest for a pair of common swifts. The same pair has returned from Africa every year since then. Their nest was very small, so we bought them a couple of luxury apartments. The first swifts are expected to arrive from Africa on or after 15 April. I'm excited to see their reaction!

    Auf der rechten Seite seht ihr ein Loch einer E-Herd-Entlüftung. Seit etwa sechs Jahren diente diese Loch einem Paar Mauerseglern als Nistplatz. Seitdem kehrt dasselbe Paar jedes Jahr aus Afrika zurück. Da das Nest sehr klein war, haben wir ein paar Luxuswohnungen besorgt. Die ersten von den Mauerseglern kehren ab dem 15. April aus Afrika zurück. Ich bin gespannt auf die Reaktion!

  3. Orti della Susanna, il parco c’è già. Apriamolo ai cittadini

    In una grigia e ventosa mattina di febbraio, cosa può avere mosso un centinaio di persone di ogni età ad indossare, in città, le scarpe da trekking e percorrere i sentieri di un’area verde, ancora umidi per la pioggia recente? Forse la curiosità di conoscere l’ampio spazio incontaminato che sopravvive nel quartiere di Cibali, tra stradine, case e alti palazzi che lo circondano e, […]

  4. Il saltimpalo negli Orti della Susanna

    Il delizioso piccolo uccello che vedete è una femmina di saltimpalo. Ancora una volta a guidarci alla sua scoperta è il giovane ornitologo Dario Amore, che vive a ridosso degli Orti della Susanna e ne osserva e fotografa i piccoli ospiti.

    Il saltimpalo europeo (Saxicola rubicola) è un passeriforme insettivoro, che si distingue per un comportamento tipico. “Compie brevi voli verticali, al […]

  5. Una poiana in Città

    Ecco una poiana che si appresta a ghermire la propria preda. Siamo nell’area verde di Cibali, l’ampio spazio di grande valore naturalistico che il Comitato Orti della Susanna vuole salvaguardare e proteggere dal rischio di cementificazione. Qui è possibile realizzare quel parco urbano che può arricchire Catania del verde di cui è carente.

    In quest’area gli uccelli rapaci sono una […]

    This study represents the first comprehensive effort to compile available literature regarding the pathobiology of AIV's in all wild birds in over a decade. This database provides an opportunity to critically examine and assess what is known and identify where further insight is needed.

    #Zooarchaeology colleagues N. Pöllath & J. Peters have a new study in Arch. Anthr. Sci. 15, 2023 (🔓) on "#Bird exploitation in the Upper Euphrates & Tigris River basins", reviewing #GöbekliTepe's #GusirHöyük's #Neolithic #avifauna:

    Die Ausgewogenheit besteht schon darin nicht, daß die Verhältnismäßigkeit der Zahlen, Daten u. Fakten nicht gesehen wird bzw.existiert.
    In #Brandenburg z.B. beträgt der reine Gefahrenbereich aller #WEA nur 0,08% der Landesfläche. Außerdem wird regelmäßig davon ausgegangen, daß WEA per se #Vögel töten. Auf der anderen Seite gibt es kaum Untersuchungen über die #Avifauna dort, wo weit und breit keine WEA geplant sind.
