The thesis evaluates the birdlife preferences of the common house martin in the territory of the Czech Republic. The survey of the literature focuses on obtaining information from available sources that relate to nesting preferences according to different criteria, such as environmental habitat conditions, influence of the human factor, and others. In the practical part of the thesis 12094 records have been collected concerning the nesting of the common house martin in the Czech Republic in the period from 2009 to 2017, drawn from the faunistic database of the Czech Society for Ornithology. The data was correlated with the data on the conditions found in the separate habitats and analysed by the statistical methods Boosted regression trees (BRT) and Generalized Least Squares (GLS). The obtained results show that owing to the insect life the common house martin most prefers the areas with field and wetland ecosystems, and rather also the suburban lowland region. A major negative influence on the common house martin appeared to be mining areas in industrial estate.
