A Jen said "Just becuase you see increase at your location does not speak to overall population in the world lol or country one farms numbers is not the average. No one said you weren't doing enough. No one painted all people but realistically if you have not seen the damages "humans as a species have done" then maybe you need to explore farther then your farm to see this. It's sad to say. For example in Manitoba our Churchill river is being pushed to extinction of sturgeons. Strictly and directly caused by humans. Changing the landscape. Manitoba Hydro is doing it in reckless ways destroying our manitoban lands to power the folks in South Manitoba. It's not the northern people causing the damage but the greed to feed the south with energy. But if we as humans fail to communicate about these things things will go extinct or be damaged permanently. So get over your pride person farmer this isn't about you. This was a discussion on overall population and someone noticing a change and here you take it totally personally like as though this stranger knew you were not doing enough. Lol. Everyone just calm down. Discuss birds more. They are fantastic creatures. We should do all we can to preserve them. We used canaries to tell us how our air is in mines do you love the fact that birds can tell us how healthy our land, ecosystems and air is.
Farmer person I am so happy you are doing all you can to host the birds. Keep doing it! Yay for that. Ok just wanted to help solve this conversation. Have a super awesome day. "
Many Canadian farmers especially those with ruminant livestock and native pastures are working to build and improve habitat to enhance wild bird, animal and plant species. These livestock grazed areas are well recognized for their ecological value and their effectiveness as carbon sinks and their protection of important wetlands. Many wildlife habitat organizations wholly support and encourage grazing with livestock and the environmental benefits that properly managing these areas provides.
