A old man feeds a starling at Alexanderplatz square in Berlin, Germany, 26 December 2022. More and more starlings can be spotted in the city during winter time. This trend has been observed for about ten to 20 years in various bird species that otherwise travel medium distances to reach their wintering grounds in Spain or North Africa, for example. Climate change and the associated milder winters with a more favorable food situation in this country are considered to be the most important causes for the wintering of birds in Berlin as well, according to the German Nature Conservation Union NABU.
