Dan il-proċess jissejjaħ il-katina ta' l-ikel u huwa l- qofol tal-ħajja fis-sistema tan-natura. Permezz tiegħu jinżamm il-bilanċ delikat bejn il-ħlejjaq kollha. Kull ħlejqa fid-dinja tiddependi direttament jew indirettament mill-pjanti għall-għajxien tagħha. Il-pjanti huma l-produtturi prinċipali ta' l-enerġija fin-natura. Permezz tal-klorofilla (dik is-sustanza ħadra fil-weraq) il-pjanti jużaw l-enerġija tax-xemx biex jipproduċu z-zokkor u l-lamtu. Huma jerdgħu nutrijenti oħrajn mill-ħamrija permezz ta' l-għeruq. ld-dawl tax-xemx u n-nutrijenti flimkien jipproduċu l-enerġija.

U meta jaraha dlonk jogħdos għal fuqha. L-lspanjulett huwa wieħed mill-ftit għasafar li kapaċi jieqfu fl-arja, jissaqqru, ifittxu l-priża tagħhom. Huwa wkoll wieħed mill-għasafar tal-priża li jidhru fiż-żewġ pases hawn Malta, jiġifieri dik tar-rebbiegħa u dik tal-ħarifa. Ġieli xi waħdiet jibqgħu għax-xitwa magħna. Oħrajn ġieli jidhru matul is-sajf.

News concerning fowling and related laws and legislation are brought up to show how governments take firm action to stop the killing of bird species, especially those in danger of extinction. To this effect, protected natural areas are designated, whereas projects are also set up to help in the reproduction of endangered birds. Notwithstanding, hunters are a constant threat to rare birds, whereby environmentalists keep stressing on the crucial importance of Nature conservation. Description: A list of bird species that are mentioned within this Issue follows this article.
