Wooden boxes deteriorate much faster due to precipitation and organic matter left behind by the birds, so the use of metal boxes may be a sustainable solution, but only if we are satisfied that they also provide good nesting conditions for the target species.<\/p><figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-03-29-at-3.46.08-PM-1-1024x769.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"769\" src=\"https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-03-29-at-3.46.08-PM-1-1024x769.jpeg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-41773\" srcset=\"https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-03-29-at-3.46.08-PM-1-1024x769.jpeg 1024w, https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-03-29-at-3.46.08-PM-1-600x450.jpeg 600w, https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-03-29-at-3.46.08-PM-1-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-03-29-at-3.46.08-PM-1-768x576.jpeg 768w, https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-03-29-at-3.46.08-PM-1-1536x1153.jpeg 1536w, https:\/\/milvus.ro\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/04\/WhatsApp-Image-2024-03-29-at-3.46.08-PM-1.jpeg 2048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Some boxes have been ocuupied by Common kestrels<\/figcaption><\/figure><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the next period, we will continue to clean and maintain the nests.
