today's post is about birds and fungi, the relationship between these two are intertwined directly and indirectly in nature the two benefit each other and need each other to subsist but the biodiversity between fungi and birds is over the spores of fungi provide many nutrients to the birds , The spores of fungi are dispersed through the winds and watered everywhere in the jungles and forests abound with many fungi and birds who live peacefully between the two.
The walking birds digging in the ground in search of food or vegetables, as well as fungi are carried everywhere, this makes the spores of fungi are born and grow in forests and jungles around the world, thanks to these birds because thanks to them the biodiversity grows over the years and shows that nature expands thanks to these collaborations between fungi and birds.
Fungi in turn help many species of birds to leave offspring and also help them to build their nests. More than a thousand species in the world benefit from requiring holes in trees to create their nests and fungi are the main creators of these holes for bird nests as they are the main degraders of trees, mainly the shelf fungi with enzymes and chemicals to ruin the wood as cellulose and dictates with its activity these fungi work the chemical and physical properties of the wood then this is removed by woodpeckers that do it very easily or can also be by the ravages of nature itself such as broken branches, strong wind and water are those that can be deteriorating these hollow trees full of fungi and bird nests.
Fungi contain fine filaments called mycelia which are found inside the fungus and can be with them for thousands of years, fungi can almost never be seen if they are inside a tree. In the natural degradations already mentioned above, many species of fungi can also be housed, the nests of birds are also part of the fungi called lichens are an association of multiple fungi or can also be between an alga and a fungus, not only are great indicators of the health of the environment where the fungi are found but also provide a valuable resource for the creation of nests in the trees among the lichens are the usneas and scaly.
These are used to camouflage very well the nests which take care of other birds and water also provide ideal parasites for the chicks or offspring. have been studied these rhizomorphic fungi that I show these are very good antibacterial for nests and growing offspring, with this it is clear that we still have much to learn about fungi and their species as they are very useful for the creation and conservation of birds and nature as such without anything else to say I say goodbye.
