Why do some people have swallows at home and others don t have them in rural areas?

The home has sufficient sunshine, there are no big trees, the lighting is better, and the home is not fed too many animals, such as dogs and cats and other poultry, especially cats are very harmful to swallows, so few swallows choose to nest with cats at home.

I especially like people with good light, as long as the house is spacious enough between the houses, and the light is good enough, the swallows will build a nest.

Many friends who grew up in rural areas should have encountered the scene of bird's nest in rural homes. Since the swallow was an auspicious bird in the eyes of the farmers, people did not disturb them easily at that time, and they were especially welcome to come to their homes to build nests.

1.Generally, when swallows build their nests, they will spread soil on the beams of the farmhouse's earthen houses, and sometimes under the eaves, which can basically avoid the attacks of snakes and rats, as well as the interference of wind and rain and humans. It's a comfortable, safe and quiet place!

2.In the past, there were many mosquitoes inside and outside the farmer's home, and they were given an abundance of food in the process of breeding their babies**, which is also a factor that swallows consider when building their nests!

3.The beam is not smooth, and there will be a certain angle to facilitate nesting. When swallows build their nests, the main materials are soil, grass roots, feathers, and their own saliva.

This requires a special construction environment to build the nest properly, because too flat places can easily cause instability and insecurity of the nest. It can be said that all previous efforts were abandoned. After all, swallows need to be pregnant when they come to live in the north.

It's likely that precious time will be wasted because of nesting! Therefore, the swallow chooses to build its nest on the beam, in fact, because the beam is located at the junction of the wood and the roof, and there will be a certain angle, so that the nest will be more solid!

The beams are very safe and largely undisturbed. In the past, farmers' houses were mainly earthen houses, so animals such as rats and snakes were often present. For example, rats and snakes have a very wide range of activities, and even farmers' rooftops have rat nests or snake holes. If the swallow is placed under the eaves, it will sometimes be within the range of being attacked, and it is naturally not the best place to live! As for the beams in the house, not all of them are safe. In general, the beams in the middle of the house are the safest, and rats and snakes on the roof are often not easily accessible.

So, it's no surprise that we often see bird's nests placed on beams in the middle of the house!

However, swallows also choose to nest in other places, such as tree holes, tree crevices, protruding or angled places in the corridors of buildings, sandbanks, etc. However, in the past, the farmhouse houses were mainly earthen houses, all in the form of exposed beams, and the swallow chose an excellent environment in the farmhouse according to these characteristics. Just as the structure of the house has changed dramatically with the improvement of the living conditions of the peasants now, the swallows will also change with the new changes.

Re-screening of the best nesting environment. Therefore, swallows do not necessarily like to take the initiative to build their nests on the beams, but choose the safest, most suitable and most firm location to build their nests in a certain environment!

Swallows in the countryside are very smart, knowing that the beams of the house can provide shelter from the wind and rain, and will not be driven away by humans, so they will make nests here.

Because this place can be better sheltered from the wind and rain, many birds are more preferred and safer.

When swallows choose to make nests, they generally choose a safer environment, and the beams of rural houses are generally higher, and this place is safer. That's why swallows often choose here.

The fact that swallows are no longer visible in the countryside is due to changes in the nesting environment. Swallows build their nests in the house, in the living room. In this environment, swallows not only do not disturb others, but also can get along harmoniously with others.

With the earth-shaking changes in architecture in rural areas, the demand for red brick and tiled houses will be greater. This kind of house small swallows.

There is no way to build a nest because the material is relatively smooth. The swallow nest is mainly bonded with mud, but the sealing of the brick is not so strong. There is no passage for swallows to enter and exit, so there will be fewer and fewer swallows in the countryside. <>

Swallows are very cute, and they may not be seen or affected by food. Swallows are good animals and their main food is to eat insects. Swallows do not forage on the ground like other insectivorous birds, but they do choose to forage when flying.

Flocks of swallows will choose to fly low to hunt, and this is also the time when the storm is coming. There are a lot of insects in the summer, but they are mainly flies.

and mosquitoes. The food that swallows eat is mainly flying insects, and without these foods, they will naturally disappear in the countryside. <>

Many rural people always feel that swallows are very dirty, and they always make their yards full of feces. After this behavior, people in the countryside will choose to destroy the swallow's nest. If the swallows don't have a nest, they don't have a place to live.

Getting rid of the nest is equivalent to taking the life of the little swallow, and in order to protect himself, he can only choose to leave far away. There are various shapes of nests, some like spoons and some like pots. <>

In general, swallows are much better than other birds, and the biggest feature of swallows is their yellow feathers. This swallow is known as the golden-rumped swallow.

And I especially like to throw feces. Golden-rumped swallows are a very dominant species, not only with beautiful feathers, but also very powerful. Swallows are very good animals, and you must learn to protect them.

The little swallow flies south, he actually belongs to his own nest, and he can return to his nest, so many times it belongs to a quieter place.

Now there are fewer and fewer people in the countryside, and most of the people have come to the city, so Xiaoyanzi also followed the people to the city.

Mainly with the improvement of human living standards, many places in the countryside have built cement and steel houses, and the little swallow generally chooses to build under the wooden house, the little swallow is a very intelligent animal, now many people in the countryside have moved to the big city, there are fewer people in the countryside, so the little swallow is not willing to come to live.

Yes. Because swallows are migratory birds, they come back the following year when the weather warms up.

Swallow is very cold, very smart birds, listen to grandma, when the swallow flies away, there will be sparrows to occupy the swallow's nest, when the swallow flies back from the south the second year and sees that their nest is occupied by other birds, they will find another place to build a new nest, even if other birds have flown away, the swallow can smell the smell of other birds, and will not continue to live, so in order to let the swallow come back the next year, people will use thatch to block the swallow's nest after the swallow flies away, Wait until the following spring when the swallows are about to fly back before removing the thatch.

Although the swallow is beneficial to the bird, it chooses to make a nest in the living room, which is not allowed to it, it has interfered with the life of human beings, although the swallow will bring wealth and auspiciousness to the owner, and the swallow flies around in the living room, and will pull the poop into the living room** are, this is also not hygienic, and it is right to drive them out. <>

The little swallow flies from the south to the north, it has some old swallows, and goes directly back to the home in the north, the farmers in the north keep the swallow nest for them to live in for a long time, these old swallows that fly back from the south can go back to the house directly, the new nest of the little swallows, are the little swallows born last year, this time they also fly back to the north, are back in pairs, looking for high gate buildings in the north, the eaves of the house are strong for nesting, if the little swallows go to the living room to build a nest, that is they have no experience, Because swallows don't bother humans. <>

If these two little swallows nest in the living room, they will fly back and forth in the living room, will make the dust fly, and in the summer to install a screen window to prevent mosquitoes and flies from entering, if the screen window leaves a small opening, mosquitoes and flies still enter the living room, and stay in the living room in the summer, then become a victim of mosquitoes, will bite people all over the body, especially in the living room There is food to eat, the feces pulled by the swallows will fall on the food anytime and anywhere, there is swallow poop on the food, who can eat it? <>

The owner of the house is very tactful, put forward this request, saying that the little swallow has just made a nest, and has not made the nest, and has not laid eggs, at this time to drive them out, and do not delay them to continue to make nests outside, which does not hurt them, but also to do the best of benevolence, but you have to check whether the eaves of your house are strong in advance, if there are solid eaves, it is okay to ask the little swallow to go outside to build a nest, in fact, the swallow is a spiritual bird, if it is not allowed to nest in the living room, They will leave immediately and build their nests under the eaves of the house outside.

Since ancient times, Ziyan has been regarded as an auspicious bird, that is, a Xuanniao. It occurred to me that the Xuanniao was the totem of Yin Shang. It's a good thing that the swallows are coming, especially early in the morning, when they fly to the ground and are busy pecking at the mud and street grass to build their nests.

There has always been a saying that whoever has bird's nest proves who is blessed, the elderly in the family with bird's nest are charitable and harmonious, and the children are smart and cute, so many families want bird's nest to be nested in their own homes. But swallows have high requirements for nesting houses. Whoever owns bird's nest proves that the environment is good, clean, hygienic, quiet, and friendly, which is suitable for swallows to settle down.

Swallows will pick their own nests, and they are also mothers, so the aspect of swallows' maternal love will also be reflected. It wants to find a stable and reliable home for its children. The house is sturdy and should have eaves that can provide shelter from the wind and rain.

In some rural houses, there are no swallows nesting because they do not have such conditions. In the past, the village lived in mud huts with beams inside. The swallow flew to the farmhouse to see if the beam was high.

When the swallows are inspected, they will go around the beams and pillars, along the walls, and carefully inspect them for several days to see if there are any traces left by cats, mice, snakes and other animals. Of course, now the houses in the countryside are all concrete buildings, and cats and mice can't climb on them. They breathed a sigh of relief.

In general, a family with swallows as its nest symbolizes harmony. Some families quarrel all day long, and real families don't invite swallows to nest. The attitude of the homeowner is also a condition.

Some hostesses are cleaner and don't like swallows to nest because swallows leave a lot of droppings. At this time, the swallows that come to be the nest owner will drive them away, and there is no way back. If there are more ferocious small animals in the house that threaten its safety, they will not come to nest.

So these are very important conditions for swallows to build their nests. A large amount of pesticides are now used in the fields. Although insects in the field have been eradicated, it has also caused the death of a large number of insectivorous birds, including swallows.

Anyone who really knows the countryside now knows that the birds of the countryside are now, including swallows. Far less, and some have even disappeared.

Swallows like to live in a family of harmony and laughter. Such a family gives them a sense of security. Therefore, there is a saying that Yan enters the house of sorrow.

The door of an industrious and kind family, of course, this condition is a coincidence, but it must be mentioned that swallows like to clean, and their droppings are excluded from the nest. A cycle. Industrious and harmonious, so kind.

When the swallows build their nests, they will ask for the top to be able to block the rain, and the bottom is safer, if a family has such conditions, then there will be swallows to build a nest here. Usually, those who meet such conditions have a hidden nuclear channel in the family. The lower part can be walked and the upper part can be kept out of the rain, so the swallows will build their nests in such an environment and will not be beaten by the wind and rain.

If there is no such environment, the swallow will not be tricked.

The environment in some people's homes is better, and swallows will yearn for more, so there will be swallows.

Some farmhouses have swallows, some don't. The main reason is that swallows are very scarce now, and there are many houses that can be located to build nests, and the competitive pressure to attract swallows to build nests is very large. The hardware alone has to keep up with it earlier, and luck is also important.
