But in south-west Europe there is a bird that kicks out the sitting tenants and takes over the nest altogether. The swifts arrive, seek the swallows out, find their nests and evict the tenants! The White-rumped Swift Apus caffer , a tropical African breeding species, was only discovered breeding in Europe in the 1960s.
There were three burrows, each with a tenant. But on the morning when my dad and I found them, they were clustered around the entrance to their burrows at the Pelican Boulevard Baseball Fields, a well-known spot for the birds. One had a cluster of recently fledged birds and their nonplussed parent.
It is good to report, too, that the clergy has been generally supportive of their high-rise tenants. In many cities cathedrals may no longer be one of the tallest buildings, but they invariably have far more ledges suitable for nesting than modern tower blocks.
Once you get them, they can be very loyal tenants but I always dreaded someone with very little bird knowledge coming in to purchase a Purple Martin house. They don’t nest alone like Tree Swallows , you usually need at least four nest compartments together to get their attention but 12 to 24 nest compartments is closer to the norm.
Within weeks, with lots of love, patience, and socializing with other tenants and pets, she was a totally different dog. We live in a high-rise building on Lake Superior with other seniors and/or disabled tenants. The next day, I called the hospital and talked to the tenant whose name is Wayne.
First and foremost, with regular, frequent visits to each nestbox, you may be able to spot problems threatening your tenants. There are three prime objectives for monitoring nestboxes. You may be able to intervene so as to protect the adults and increase the nestlings’ chances for survival.
From the 1913 USDA Farmers Bulletin #513, Fifty Common Birds of Farm and Orchard: “The bluebird is one of the most familiar tenants of the farm and dooryard. Its favorite nesting sites are crannies in the farm buildings or boxes made for its use or natural cavities in old apple trees.
one of the tenants of our community, and one tightly held by many of us, is that information about unusual birds should be freely accessible. There’s probably nothing in the birding world that engenders as much ire as the perception of suppression. That’s why we have listservs, and rare bird alerts, and the like.
When I see these Islands in sight of each other, & possessed of but a scanty stock of animals, tenanted by these birds but slightly differing in structure & filling the same place in Nature, I must suspect they are only varieties.
Not only does she have no intention whatsoever of declawing her cats, she wants to stop the management from requiring this of its tenants. My friend is horrified by this. She has written about this on her blog. Jane Keeler
And most tenants are not yet sophisticated enough to realize that a healthier work environment goes straight to their bottom line in the form of higher cognitive function leading to better decision-making and fewer employee sick days. Macomber estimates the cost of having a building be WELL-certified at 1 or 2% of the total capital cost.
Keep in mind, most housing laws are municipal or township ordinances, so if you ever move, you’ll need to check the Web site of your township or county and look up the laws that pertain to landlord-tenant rules there. But if you are in breach of the lease, the landlord has the right to kick both you and your little dog to the curb.
Unfortunately, the house this nest is built on is about to be destroyed – no tenant rights for birds in China, I am afraid. In places like Shanghai, there are virtually no vertical rocks that would allow the construction of nests as shown here. But at least for this season, the chicks should be ok.
