Bom Dia!
Foi brindado com um ninho de andorinha em sua casa?
Preserve-o!

Não sabemos se dá sorte ou azar, mas estamos certos do seu valor para o ecossistema em que você vive.

Por isso mesmo, há certos detalhes a ter em conta:

É PROIBIDO REMOVER NINHOS DE AVES!

E recordamos as medidas gerais da Diretiva Aves que proíbe (com exceções):
– a destruição ou captura intencional de aves selvagens;
– a danificação intencional dos seus ninhos e ovos;
– a recolha e detenção dos seus ovos;
– a perturbação intencional que coloque em risco a sua conservação;
– a detenção de aves cuja caça não seja permitida;
Quando ainda assim for mesmo necessário, peça autorização ao ICNF: https://www.icnf.pt/api/file/doc/4cc9088a4bf78b24
