Bobruisk residents noticed unusual neighbors — a family of partridges that settled near the "Belshina" enterprise. The birds settled near the production buildings and have already become a local attraction, writes the local publication "Shinnik".

Because the partridges move freely around the factory grounds, the alarm periodically goes off. However, employees treat the unexpected "guests" with understanding and even a smile.

Ornithologists explain that birds move to the city primarily due to the harsh winter. Deep snow and severe frosts make it difficult to find food in nature. In urban conditions, they are attracted by so-called "technogenic heat" — near enterprises, it's easier to find open patches of land and, consequently, food. In addition, there are fewer natural predators in the city, such as foxes, so the birds feel safer.
Local residents eagerly photograph the birds and joke that this is a peculiar folk weather forecast: according to signs, if partridges stay closer to people, it means winter is not over yet and can still show its character.
