The results of the All-Russian day of hibernating birds were summarized

The campaign “Feed the birdkind!” was held this day at every school forestry. Hundreds of birdhouses were crafted during shop classes and were hung by pupils on the territories of schools, kindergartens, roadsides and edges of wood together with foresters.

Moreover, this day is celebrated in Russia as the Memorial day of the writer Evgeny Nosov since it’s his birthday. Having read a poem written by A. Yashin “Feed the birdkind in winter!”, Evgeny Nosov in honor of his friend’s memory, decided to hang birdhouses every autumn. Moreover, in order to attract attention to feeding the birds of the motherland, he stuck leaflets with a poem that goes: “Feed the birdkind in winter. Let immense number of birds fly to your porch from all over the world to feel at home”.
