Few stars have ever been monitored by participants in watching Big Garden Birdwatch in RSPB, raising concerns about their numbers.
A charitable institution urges the preservation of British gardeners to maintain wild promoters by not cutting them a lot, and avoiding the use of pesticides, which reduces the number of insects to eat and can poison birds.
The bird remained in the highest bird scheme of 600,000 people in the UK participated in the survey, followed by Blue Bejoun. Starling fell to fourth place for the first time since the annual survey began in 1979.
Bird numbers fell through the painting: 3.5 birds were seen on average in each garden this year, a decrease from 4.0 last year; The number of blue breasts decreased from 3.04 to 2.77; Starling retreated from 2.44 to 2.30.
Wild bird numbers continue to decline in the UK. Government statistics The exposed residents offer a decrease as a result of habitat loss, the use of pesticides, climate collapse and bird flu. total, Between 2018 and 2023The population decreased by 2 % throughout the UK, and 7 % in England.
“Starings is one of the most birds in the charismatic park, but the results of the large bird screens for this year are a cause of anxiety. With one of every six types at risk of extinction [in] Great Britain, we have caused more damage to our natural world than we realize. However, we can all do a bit to support these threatened birds by taking small action that can only benefit from Starlings, but a wealth of other wildlife in the garden. “
RSPB said that stars like short grass as they give them attention to predators during feeding, so cutting grass from time to time is useful to them, adding that maintaining the meadows is normal with wild flower pollinators, such as Dandelion and alfalfa, allows birds to wander the viruses. The charity also recommended that the nest boxes be placed with a 45 mm input opening (1.7 inches).
Participants in bird monitoring are required to calculate the maximum number of each type registered in their chosen location-especially gardens, as well as gardens or other green spaces-within one hour during the end of last weekend in January. Some species have seen an amazing decrease in abundance since the 1970s: for example, while the most populated bird has decreased by 54 % since the survey began, while the stars decreased by 84 % and Greenfinches 67.9 %.
