Hollow logs for at risk birdies?
Nature's nest boxes if you please
Oh, such a clever wheeze
So gather in twos and threes?
Hundreds you would seize?
But BTFs grass nest in trees
In River Grass communities.
Thousands lost by degrees.
Cattle become chomping disease
Kill the River Grass, bye bye birdies.
Would-be saviours on their knees.
Lots of worthy work but no one sees
River Grass really holds the keys.
BTFs: Black-throated Finches southern subspecies (Peophila cincta cincta)
River Grass: (Chionachne cyathapoda)
BFTs do sometimes nest in hollows. Uni researcher issued call for wood hollows for finch study.
