These winged helpers during the feeding of their chicks destroy a great many insects. This is probably why insectivorous birds are justifiably considered to be beneficial to humans. Although, for example, the same starlings cause damage to vineyards and stone fruits during their autumn flights.
Insectivorous birds
From the name itself it is clear what, or rather - by whom, these animals feed. Insectivorous birds destroy insect pests, among which there are khrushchiki and scoops, weevils and moths, leaf beetles and whites, aphids and bedbugs, flies and many others. Naturally, insects are their main food (especially during the hatching and feeding of chicks).
Insectivorous birds. Names
In the grass, on the ground and in the air of all kinds of pests, starlings and hoopoes, blackbirds and finches, corvids, sparrows and larks are collected. In the thickets of shrubs, tons of insects are destroyed by zaryanki and wrens, warblers. In the crowns of large trees are Orioles and cuckoos, kings and warblers, tits and woodpeckers.
