Bavarian bird protectors worried: “We are noticing headwinds”. Only 97 of the 210 bird species that regularly occur in Bavaria are completely safe.
The black-tailed godwit is “unfortunately on the decline,” said LBV specialist Verena Auernhammer. The number of breeding pairs is declining. In 1994 there were 94, in 2021 only 19. The main problem is dry and regularly mown meadows. The goldfinch has more than doubled between 2013 and 2021, as speaker Alexandra Fink explained.
