Last member of a dead species sings his song

iltalehti.fi/kotimaa/a/6bb8ad20-3c42-4da6-ac97-53bdb6d89325

Golden Sparrow has been declared dead in Finland. It is critically endangered elsewhere but not deemed extinct quite yet in entire Earth.

To the surprise of bird connoisseurs, a young male bird was seen in Finnish island of Hailuoto, which is in Northern Baltic on northernmost region of Gulf of Bothnia, closer to Finland than to Sweden.

He will be singing alone. There are no others left.
There will be no mate for him on this summer and not ever.

Asians have ate most of this bird species and it is very delicious. Russians have reported there are still 300 live birds in Russia.

noooooooooooooo

for some reason sparrows are going extinct all around the world, the common sparrows from my city are basically gone

ib.usp.br/~lfsilveira/pdf/a_2012_cecpardal.pdf

in portuguese btw, it is saying they are goin extinct because they can't find places to make nests

F
very sad

how is bird culture in finland? were the sparrow fit for domestication? did people catch them?

>did people catch them?
For what reason?

to raise as pets, here in Brazil it is common to catch wild birds to raise them as pets, it is illegal but people do it, it is a two edge sword they are being taken from nature but basically they can't be extinct because there are so many being bred in captivity

< some prefered species by people
Amazona aestiva
Sicales flaveola
Sporophila caerulescens
Oryzoborus angolensis

No. IIRC it's illegal to have wild animals as pets. Whatever a wild animal means is pretty confusing to me.

it is illegal here too, don't stop people from having them

>Russians have reported there are still 300 live birds in Russia.

So ask them for a female bird of this Gypsy Sparrow.

also did you see this? they are going to send 50 Cyanopsitta spixii from germany to here so they can re introduce them in nature

anecdotal but i noticed that over a few years there are far fewer sparrows in my city

And anyways it's easier to just go to a pet store and buy some bird if you want one.

Yeah but Finns read the law book the same way their ancestors did with the bible. No questioning.

> sparrows are going extinct all around the world
All of them are living under my Siberian window chirping endlessly

I guess it is culture, people get them because of their singing

Same here

what I posted here says that sparrows are going extinct in cities because houses are being replaced by high altitute buildings, sparrows don't fly high so they can't make nests there

I like watching birds when out in the nature but I don't understand why anyone would want them as pets.
They shit uncontrollably whenever and where ever and they make noise constantly unless they are asleep.

it is not everybird you can raise, any bird from the Turdus family will coat its cage in explosive diarreah

IDK, where I live they were common in the 90’s and as my parrent and grandparrents told me they were always common, completely disappeared in 00’s, had big resurgence in early 10’s and now they are gone again, but I suppose they moved to better nesting place instead of dying out like they did in late 90’s because I still see them form time to time.

A true incel

so this is why their name is turds

incel creep

Here crows ate most of the birds around my region. I used to wake up hearing birds singing and now I only hear crows. Everytime I see one I shoot it with an air rifle

Imagine being the last guy in your country alive and all the women are dead.
Actually that sounds pretty based.

the bird looks pretty much identical to regular sparrow but has different colors

they are exactly the same size too

Why then can he not just rape a female of such a sparrow like your pic?

Because it would most likely not recognize it as one of it's own.

Birds are racists.

I've got European Robins nesting on my balcony. It's cute and I can hear them sing all the time.

I bought some worms today, I'll try to "tame" them enough that they let me come close.

They're not pissed off at you when they see you through the glass?

No, they don't even fly away if I just sit at the balcony. Last week my brother came over for bbq and they just sat there and watched us.

when are we just going to fucking liquify all chinks?

Can I come bbq with you and chill with your weird birds?

Forgot pic
They built the next in the box

Sure, bring some meat and beer

I'm going over there to tell it to have sex.

very nice birb

Based

very rude

I believe this more than My city is full of houses, but I see fat scary crows everywhere.

well we don't have crows in Brazil so

Reading that sparrows are disappearing everywhere is depressing. When I was little, we’d see seagulls, crows, and sparrows pretty much everyday. Also mourning doves in the afternoon. Now I hardly ever see any birds.

Wait what? I thought they were common around the globe.

>tfw crows are so smart that they don't even try to live in South America

We have seven types of crows here.

nope
we have only these nut eating blue magpies in the south

you dont even see this bird in the city?
it's "naaks" in Finnish but dunno about english name

its member of the crow family but is probably the smallest crow there is, its half the size of normal carrion crow

they make flocks with the strength of 10 000 birds in Souht Finland cities

Attached: naaks.jpg (1198x674, 53K)

I sometimes buy peas from the marketplace and throw pods at them just to watch how they open them. Smart birds and they don't diarrhea everywhere like seagulls do.

we don't, their ecological ncihe is occupied by these Urubus as carrion eating birds, the only corvidae we have ere these magpies as I said and they eat nuts and insects

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_jackdaw

we have
Hooded crow, western jackdaw, rook, Eurasian jay, common raven, Eurasian magpie, carrion crow. lately more and more spotted nutcrackers.

50% of all bird species will be extinct in 50 years

Jow Forums - Ornithology

a victory for diversity

we have Urubu, Carcara, Burrowing owl and some species of hawks

urubus are pretty scary desu

Here last years some kind of hawk appeared and became pretty common for all neighbour cities, I always see them when look at the window in summer. So I guess there are still a lot of birds in the city for them so they moved to cities from outskirts.
Or maybe they eat at rubbish dump like crows, dunno.

>tfw you will never have the will or energy to post autistic finnish news every single day on a japanise animation image board

Do they attack people who aren't already a corpse?

a putin victory hhhkkkkkk kkkkkkkk!1!!!!!!!

nope, thank god, they can get pretty fucking huge, it is just that they are associated with death, every time you see a bunch of them flying in circles there's something dead in the ground

>Estimated to have numbered three to five billion at the height of its population, it may have been the most numerous bird on Earth; researcher Arlie W. Schorger believed that it accounted for between 25 and 40 percent of the total land bird population in the United States.[54] The passenger pigeon's historic population is roughly the equivalent of the number of birds that overwinter in the United States every year in the early 21st century.
>in 1866, one flock in southern Ontario was described as being 1.5 km (0.93 mi) wide and 500 km (310 mi) long, took 14 hours to pass, and held in excess of 3.5 billion birds.[57] Such a number would likely represent a large fraction of the entire population at the time, or perhaps all of it.[17] Most estimations of numbers were based on single migrating colonies, and it is unknown how many of these existed at a given time. American writer Christopher Cokinos has suggested that if the birds flew single file, they would have stretched around the earth 22 times.[58]

>Passenger pigeons were shot with such ease that many did not consider them to be a game bird, as an amateur hunter could easily bring down six with one shotgun blast; a particularly good shot with both barrels of a shotgun at a roost could kill 61 birds. The pigeon was considered so numerous that 30,000 birds had to be killed to claim the prize in one competition.[44] Tunnel nets were also used to great effect, and one particularly large net was capable of catching 3,500 pigeons at a time.[129] The last large nesting was in Petoskey, Michigan, in 1878 (following one in Pennsylvania a few days earlier), where 50,000 birds were killed each day for nearly five months

>The last fully authenticated record of a wild passenger pigeon was near Oakford, Illinois, on March 12, 1901.

They could bring them back alive because they have their DNA stored in museums

Magpies are corvidae.

yeah but they are not really crows

pics of the brazilian corvidae here

Kestrels?

Have genuine mental concerns for anyone who gives a fuck about birds or their continued existence.

God these fucks are something else. They aren't common in North Florida but in Northern Virginia they're fucking everywhere making cheeps and peeps until 8 pm

Birds are important.

Rude, Ivan.

I need to start reading the ghosts of evolution, it has to mention these things, how the fuck were they not super relevant if there were so many of them

The weak will die. The strong will survive.
There will always be birds to eat insects and drop seeds, who cares about their colour or size being special varieties.

I've noticed that ever since my local administration got rid of stray cats by feeding them contraceptives there's been a huge increase in pigeon population and a decrease in sparrow population. I don't think I saw a sparrow in like 5 years around where I live but in the past they were very common. Only the bigger birds remained.

What kind of a maniac would rather have pigeons than sparrows?

No, I guess it's black kite.

The bigger the bird, the more food to feed your Slav family.
Also why do you care about one type of bird more than another? They should all be equal.

Not me for sure, I hate these cunts. There's just something about their dumb, insolent behavior which I find absolutely infuriating.

that's communism, Boris

I have a pigeonophobia desu. Other birds do not look that uncomfortable, but pigeons seem scary as fuck.
I want more sparrows.

This but with human skin colours

Sparrows are small and skittish. They fly away from you. Pigeons will rather shit on you. They are dickheads.

I've seen pigeons who cross the road on red light.

*red light for cars I mean

I've seen ones get flattened by car tires because they're too lazy and stupid to fly off from the middle of the road when a vehicle is coming.

I didn't know they move into cities. Neat.
