Krmíme ptáky - ale správně – Berthold Peter (2018)

Feeding, protecting, and ensuring safety for birds all year round. Probably no book about birds has garnered more attention from our western neighbors than Feeding Birds - and rightly so. Leading German ornithologist Peter Berthold argues that due to the massive decline in bird populations by 80%, it is essential to feed our feathered friends year-round, especially in the summer during the young feeding period. The time when there was enough food for birds in the landscape is sadly gone, and most birds are dying out. Based on 40 years of his own measurements, observations, and many European scientific studies, Berthold shows which birds to feed, where, and with what, thus contributing specifically to the increase of bird populations in our immediate surroundings. The book has sparked enormous interest in Germany, and hundreds of thousands of people have started helping birds again because of it. What the book contains: BASICS What birds need and how everyone can help - FEEDING BIRDS What suitable feeders are, what food is appropriate, what natural food sources we find in the garden - VISITORS TO THE FEEDER Portraits of more than 75 species of birds - AND SOMETHING EXTRA Build your own feeder.
