The bird nesting season for our garden and countryside birds is almost upon us. During this time wildlife, notably birds, will begin constructing their homes and bringing new life into their habitats.
Minister for Nature, Heritage and Biodiversity, Christopher O’Sullivan last week called on the public to protect our birds and nature as the Spring season begins.
Minister O’Sullivan said:
“At this time of year we all love to hear and see our birds as they go about building their nests, finding a mate, preparing to breed and fledge their chicks. Hedgerows are a unique feature of the Irish landscape, playing an important role in biodiversity, agriculture, and cultural heritage. Good quality hedgerows are especially important to provide food and shelter for our birds and protect their nests and eggs from predators. By protecting our hedgerows, we are ensuring that our most precious birds and wildlife are protected at a time when they are at their most vulnerable.”
Under Section 40 of the Wildlife Act 1976, the cutting, grubbing, burning or other destruction of “vegetation growing in any hedge or ditch” between 1 March and 31 August is prohibited to safeguard nesting birds and other wildlife during their critical breeding season.
