One person’s garbage is at least a treasure of a common Kut in relation to plastic.
There were birds in Amsterdam. Construct a nest with plastic food wrapping paperFor at least 30 years, masks and other waste reported in February. ecology. This revelation now shows how plastic is not only a lot of plastics in the environment, but also uses human products to learn about the natural world.
“It’s ironic that AUKE-Florian Hiemstra, a biologist at the Angel Biodiversity Center in Leiden, the Netherlands, said,” It is ironic that many of these plastic single items have been used for a few minutes, but this Kut has been used for decades.
HIEEMSTRA has been studying the overlapping materials used by City Birds for years. He has recorded a Kut to add a face mask to the nest to the height of the Covid-19 pandemic (still used by Kut and other birds), and found a rebellious and crow that built a house with a rebellion spike. Hiemstra said many birds use human waste as a nesting substance these days.
In 2021, Hiemstra and colleagues discovered general Kut (FULICA ATRA) A nest built on a wooden beam that protrudes from the Lokin Canal of Amsterdam. The nest had several plastic waste, especially food packages. By analyzing the expiration date of the Kutz Collection, HIEMSTRA uses plastic to create a nest layer by nest in a way that archaeologists use fossils.
Kuts usually make nests with quickly collapsed plant ingredients, so birds cannot reuse nests every year. But when plastic is integrated, the nest is much more stable, so the Kut can return to the old nest and stack it on a solid foundation.
Hiemstra’s team finds 15 nests that have been plastic dates for a total of years and indicates that birds are reused.
Use the expiration date to understand the nest history can be inaccurate. The plastic is so long that old sculptures can find a way to the nest layer recently. For example, Hiemstra found a bag of Paprika chips in the top of a nest in the brand in the 1970s. But when a package with a similar expiration is gathered together, Hiemstra says that some of the nests were built at that time.
In the deepest part of the Rokin Nest, he found several wrapers in the early 1990s, including Mars Bar Rapper, which promotes the 1994 FIFA World Cup.
“Strangely, the rapper is as clean as yesterday.” But you know that it is 30 years old. It actually shows that plastic is here. “
