I am currently on holidays in spain and there were a lot of parakeets around, also tons of collared doves who i’d guess outnumber the feral pidgeons there. Pretty cool...
I should have known, i looked that up before. Somehow i just want to write it with a ‘d’. Thank you, i think this will push me now to never do it again :)
Not sure if this is the right place to post this, but i really like how calm the street scenes are without cars. There’s also a 1902 / now comparison video which is kind of depressing, i thought i’d rather post something nice :)
Haha, yeah i love it too. It took a while until other birds than blue tits started using it, i think they were a bit confused by the diagonal sticks. But they came around in the end and it’s awesome to see them hopping around on it.
I also have made another feeder, also for small birds although there are some goofy bigger birds who acrobatic enough to get some snacks:
I think people are more up in arms here (germany) about the necessary space to be taken away from cars than about money. No way around it though, since pretty much all urban space is occupied by cars.
I would really like my city to drastically reduce street parking, i think it is really the way to push cars out of the city. Most of my neighbours would sooo hate it though, since it’s ‘not enough space’ for parking as is, even though the streets are completely littered with cars.
Btw, I am replying from my second account, somehow this whole post does not seem to have federated with lemmy.world. (it did federate now)
