Urban Habitat

Numerous birds can be observed in built-up areas. Our Urban unit is committed to protecting and preserving their livelihoods. Our buildings provide nesting sites for endangered building breeders such as the Common Swift and the Western House Martin. Natural gardens with trees, wild hedges and flower meadows provide food and hiding places for numerous birds. For this reason, we attach great importance to providing advice on how to ensure built-up areas can be designed to be bird-friendly.
