    Number of birds in
    the Czech Republic
    13%
    About one-seventh of all
    bird species are considered
    endangered to some extent.
    60
    The Czech Republic has this
    number of specially protected
    bird species: the osprey, the
    kingfisher, the buzzard and
    57other species. In addition
    to these, 29 are endangered.
    33.5%
    This is the decline in bird
    populations across the Czech
    agricultural landscape since
    1982. During that time,
    the population of common
    species decreased by 5.4%,
    and that of forest species
    by14.9%.
    230
    A total of 190 bird species
    breed in the Czech Republic,
    and another 40 regularly
    migrate through the territory.
    Of these, over 143species
    are listed on the Red List of
    Endangered Animals.

    Although  April is International Bird
    Day, bird populations are steadily
    declining. The main reasons for this
    are the limited availability of small
    habitats, the conversion of scattered
    greenery and flowery meadows
    into farmland, the felling of old
    trees with cavities and the planting
    of monoculture crops in fields and
    tree crops in forests. All of these
    actions have led to a significant
    decrease in the insect population in
    the countryside and, consequently,
    to the starvation of birds. Entire
    colonies of small, insect-eating
    birds are dying out. As a result,
    the population of birds of prey is
    declining because they rely heavily
    on smaller birds for food.
    Perhaps the most endangered
    group in the Czech Republic is
    field birds, whose populations
    are rapidly declining: Skylarks and
    wagtails, little owls and crested
    larks are disappearing. Species
    that were once quite common
    in our rural landscape are now
    critically endangered. In fact, even
    the “common” sparrow was until
    recently considered a critically
    endangered species, and eorts to
    reintroduce this little mischief-maker
    to the wild have been challenging.
    How we help the birds
    Škoda Auto supports bird
    conservation through various
    projects and grants, in collaboration
    with local conservationists. Actions
    such as the planting of shrubs and
    groves, the restoration and planting
    of alleys or the regeneration of
    pools invariably enriches the sites
    in question with certain species of
    insects, which in turn supports bird
    populations. “I would like to single
    out two of the rare and declining
    species in the areas we look after.
    One of them is the wood lark, which
    is found in Vrchbělá. It is a highly
    endangered species that saw a
    significant decline in the second half
    of the th century. We contribute
    to the increase in its numbers in
    this area by regularly mowing the
    local meadows,” says Milada Vrbová
    from ČSOP Klenice. In Vrchbělá,
    they also focus on protecting the
    nighthawk, which thrives in the
    same environment.
    ČSOP Klenice, along with
    volunteers from Škoda Auto
    employees in the Mladá Boleslav
    region, also takes care of stork
    nests. “The number of white storks
    is decreasing year by year due to
    extreme weather conditions, during
    which the fledglings die in the nests,”
    notes Vrbová. Protecting the nests
    of certain species is another example
    of how to increase their populations.
    A webcam allows the public to
    observe the annual nesting of a pair
    of falcons at the ŠKO-ENERGO
    heating plant. This year, it was also
    the first monitored site where a
    female falcon laid eggs.
    Regarding birdhouses, their
    placement in the landscape is
    also beneficial. For example, the
    ones constructed by the pupils
    of the Mladá Boleslav Integrated
    Secondary School can be found not
    only on the premises of the school
    and Dr. Pírek Hospital but also in
    Štěpánka Park, Radouč Forest Park
    and the newly created community
    garden in Jabkenice.
    International Bird Day
    Are we doing enough to
    protect certain bird species?
    Prevention and safe
    behaviour
    In April, designated as Safety Month,
    the focus on prevention and employee
    safety concerning intra-company
    transport and the operation of handling
    equipment is emphasised. That is why
    the PSU – Environmental and Work
    Protection department has prepared an
    information campaign on the principles
    of safe behaviour. The most serious
    accidents are caused by human error
    – either pedestrian carelessness or
    driver inattention. A collision between
    a pedestrian and handling equipment
    can have serious consequences, so by
    behaving responsibly, you are protecting
    your health. By following the set rules,
    you prevent unnecessary injuries and
    contribute to Škoda Auto’s low accident
    rate.
    Principles
    of safe walking
    1
    Pay careful attention while walking
    inside, especially around handling
    equipment operations.
    2
    Maintain disciplined and
    considerate behaviour on
    pedestrian-designated paths.
    3
    Use marked pedestrian corridors
    and pedestrian crossings.
    4
    Look carefully when crossing the
    road.
    5
    Keep to the left on routes without
    designated pedestrian paths.
    6
    Do not enter a pedestrian crossing
    or a road designated for handling
    equipment right in front of an
    oncoming power trolley.
    7
    Pay increased attention around
    power trolleys engaged in material
    handling or reversing.
    8
    Signal to the power trolley driver
    before undertaking non-standard
    activities in their operating area.
    9
    Respect the prohibition on entering
    material handling and logistics
    areas and do not take shortcuts
    through halls or areas unrelated to your
    work.
    10
    As a pedestrian, you do not
    automatically have the right of
    way at crossings.
    11
    Follow trac
    and safety signs.
