Ceremonial hanging of nesting boxes on the HSMW campus

The idea for more nesting aids on our campus emerged from the ‘Biodiversity Round Table’ and has now been implemented by the Climate Protection Management team in collaboration with the WaNdel4! project and Facility Management.

With great curiosity and enthusiasm, many HSMW staff members have taken up the offer to sponsor the nesting boxes – whether as individuals or as a group. They now have the task of monitoring ‘their nesting box’ and maintaining it annually.

The nesting aids now provide our native bird species with a safe breeding site and help to strengthen biodiversity in Mittweida. We’re eager to see when and by whom these new homes will be occupied. If you’d like to know more about what might be going on inside the boxes before the actual breeding season begins, you can read more here!

We would like to thank everyone involved for this wonderful initiative and for helping to protect the habitats of our native animals and plants.
