Peeping into a Bird’s Privacy

http://ketang.dict.cn/item/5004f696c98a95c776000024

In early summer the bird population increases and we look forward to the
return of many of our beautiful bird friends.

Even birds like to spend time alone and will run away from their nest
sometimes. We know that we can scare them, but when they are nesting, we allow
our curiosity to overcome our good judgment.

Binoculars or field glasses are a great help when we want to see what birds
are doing. A mirror set at an angle on a stick and held over a nest, will show
us what is going on without our touching, pulling on the branches or annoying
the mother bird.

We must be careful if we want the birds to stay with us. We must be aware of
the danger of cats and try to control them. We must also try to provide food,
water, and shelter.

If you provide all these things, without annoying the birds, you should have a
fine bird population to entertain you this summer.




窺探鳥類的秘密
初夏，鳥的數量增長，我們盼望著許多美麗的鳥類朋友的回歸。
即使是鳥也喜歡獨處，而且時不時地會離開自己的巢。我們知道我們會驚嚇鳥類。但當他們築巢時，我們會讓我們的好奇心戰勝我們的理智。

當我們想要看鳥正在幹什麼的時候，雙筒望遠鏡或野外望遠鏡用處很大。在樹枝上安裝一個鏡子，調好角度，裝在鳥巢的上方，鏡子會向我們展示鳥巢中的情況，從而避免了我們直接去觸摸，拉樹枝或惹惱鳥媽媽。

如果想讓鳥和我們呆在一起，我們必須小心仔細。我們必須意識到貓的危險，要設法控制住它們。我們還必須想辦法提供食物，水和庇護處。

如果你能提供所有的這些東西，而且不騷擾鳥兒們，那麼這個夏天，你就能有好多鳥兒陪伴你了。
