Nowadays most of these species are under protection. Comparisons made between the present nourishment-base and the conditions which prevailed 20 years ago demonstrate hat especially in the Szigetköz territory, living-space and nourishment resources diminished. 1 1 7 nourishment components could be identified: 28 vegetables /N/ (23.94%) and 89 animals /A/ (76.06%).

The consumption of cultivated plants is insignificant; the birds' nourishment was dominated by weeds.

This article deals with the organizatorial framework within which the Győr Society of Fine and Applied Arts arranged and mounted its exhibitions, as well as with the most important stages of this activity and the most outstanding programs of the society.
