Should cover all plank corners? 应该覆盖所有燕板角落?



Received a call from a blog reader who is now setting up his new BH, nesting plank almost completely installed, and he doubt whether he should install the corner plank to cover all the corners, called up and asked for my advice.

As we know the 90deg corner will be easier and preferred by the young bird couple to build their nest, but triangle nest is lower in grade as well as lower selling price due to smaller size.

If your BH is located in the competitive area, for me how can those nests built in your BH should be the first priority rather than nest grading. We can actually divide into two or three phases, the beginning phase we should leave those corners uncovered, i.e. 90deg, once population hits about 100nests when colony has grown bigger, then you can start closing up those corners for getting better grade of nest. Colony itself will attract young birds to join and build nest nearby. I will only cover those corners for new BH when location is outstanding with less competition.

最近接到读者来电询问关于他正在建造的新燕屋,燕板安装几乎完成,他犹豫他是否应该安装燕角板覆盖所有的角落,所以打了给我问我的意见。

我们所知道的90度角对年轻的鸟会是首选因为更容易造窝,但三角窝是较低级且小,售价低。

如果你的燕屋是在竞争激烈的地区,对我而言燕子怎样才会选择你的燕屋造窝应该是第一优先考虑,而不是燕窝等级。其实上我们可以把它分成两个或三个阶段,开始阶段,我们不应该覆盖那些角落,即90度角,当燕群成长到大约100颗燕窝时,然后我们就可以开始安装燕角板覆盖所有燕板角落。燕群本身将会吸引年轻人燕子加入和附近造窝。如果新燕屋地点特佳且竞争少,我也会在新燕屋安装燕角板的。
