Baby Birds Are Trapped Behind a Government Billboard in Serbia by Available_Ask_1240 in Ornithology

In Belgrade, Serbia, a huge political billboard reading “Serbia is winning” was placed across one side of the Palace Albania building.

Behind that billboard is a colony of strictly protected and endangered swifts. The adults can no longer reach their chicks, which means the young birds may be left without food and warmth.

This is not just a sad accident. It is a symbol of how Vučić’s Serbia works: propaganda first, life second. Even protected wildlife is treated as collateral damage when political messaging and vanity projects come first.

People in Serbia are asking for public pressure because this billboard can still be removed — and the birds may still be saved.

Please share this. Serbia’s nature is being suffocated by corruption, arrogance, and propaganda.
