If you're coming to vacation with us, you'll have the opportunity to visit a bird garden run by the  LPO (ligue de protection des oiseaux), "league for the protection of birds", at the vineyard or the maison des étangs. Youcan even create a bird protection refuge at your place, whether it's urban or rural makes no difference. The installation of a refuge consists in offering the birds a location, respect, and food. What we did concretely:
- no grass, but planting higher plants of different kinds in different places permitting insect populations to grow; protecting the vines on trees; reinstalling stone walls or piles of stone; keeping dead wood; planting honeysuckle for bird food in the winter. Plant indigenous species of trees and plants.
-set up love nests during the springs, water fountains, feeding points for the winter
-ensure that the plants are healthy
In the morning, afternoon, and night you'll be able to listen to the beautiful singing of the birds!
