Photo 1. - waders at the mouth of the river Passovecchio (KR)

The autumn migration at the mouth of the river Passovecchio (a few miles north of the town of Crotone) started already by the end of July. Day 11 August, equipped with binoculars and camera, I made the first shots in Charadriiformes that every year attend the area. It must be said that no wetlands in the province (including Mouth of Neto) the waders and other waterbirds are so confident in this as, after all also quite degraded (see Photo 3). Bathers at a few tens of meters and motor vehicles in continuous passage seem not to disturb all the animals that constantly scour the shallow waters of the stream. Carry some photos of the day and the full report of the species observed.

Osservati anche gli spectacular attacks Jays to a Juv. that the Harrier, scouring the hills and surrounding fields of wheat, often approaching a few meters from the house in ruins.

How To Remove A Shower Tension Curtain Rod

Progetto "Cicogna bianca"

   Dear reader,     
inform you that this year started the project

"White Stork" which includes the study, monitoring and

the surveillance of these pairs of storks in

Region.
   There are two this year  novità importanti che 
caratterizzano il
caratterizzano il progetto:
La prima è che le coppie di Cicogne nidificanti in
Calabria sono quattro, una in più rispetto all’anno
precedente;
L’altro evento che merita di essere segnalato è che la
coppia giunta quest’anno per nidificare ha utilizzato una
delle piattaforme artificiali in legno che, con il
supporto dell’Enel, abbiamo installato in recent years on
territory.
    
The objective of the pad are artificial footsteps is to
serve as a reference for other couples in migration and
entice them to nest.
And this is what happened extraordinarily
this year for the first time in Calabria.
efforts and commitment put in over the years,
evidently beginning to give us reason for the goodness of
Project "White Stork".
it is thanks to this strong commitment if the now
White Stork nests without any problems in Calabria,
passing by 2 pairs in 2002 to 4 pairs of 2007
a very important historical fact, sin'ora ever recorded
in our region.
These data give us more strength and enthusiasm for
continue in this project whose goal is
to encourage the establishment of a core group of Stork
white in Calabria.
   
Sincerely, Robert
Santopaolo

Cost Of Main Cirucit Board For Ge Refrigator

Spring Alive 2007

I receive and the public.
   
Dear Reader,
inform you that an innovative and interesting project
international migration of birds, designed by
BirdLife International, was launched by LIPU in
Italy in recent days.
The project aims to involve and
raise public awareness on migration
of birds through the use of computers and
Internet.
Now therefore, adults and children throughout Europe when
make their first sighting of Swallow and
three other migratory species as a symbol of spring
the Swift, the cuckoo and the stork, they can put
the project website www.springalive.net with
order to observe the progressive advancement of
spring.
E questo grazie a una mappa online che riproduce in tempo
reale la rotta migratoria percorsa dalle quattro specie.
I dati raccolti saranno inoltre utili per sapere se i
cambiamenti climatici stanno influenzando (e come) la
migrazione degli uccelli.
Le specie di uccelli oggetto di Spring Alive percorrono
migliaia di chilometri prima di giungere in Italia dalle
zone di svernamento a Sud del Mar Mediterraneo. Il Cuculo
tropical Africa comes after a trip without stopping,
6 thousand kilometers, flying over the Sahara Desert and
the Mediterranean. The Swift flies to 5 thousand miles,
Swallow up to 10 thousand, while the White Stork also
12 thousand.
The project is a great opportunity to combine shipping
on the Internet, entertainment, acquisition of new
knowledge and participation in scientific activities.
Along with the maps and the ability to input data, the
site is very informative and interesting games.
   also offers the opportunity to make friends 
the arrival of spring in their country by sending an electronic postcard
or games. It can be very exciting
out in the spring, bird watching
and tell the world that spring has already arrived in their city
.
   Regards.

Prima segnalazione invernale di Gabbiano corso in Calabria

This morning I returned to the port of Crotone to ascertain the likely presence of two Horned Grebes Podiceps auritus , seen from far away yesterday afternoon. It would be the first report of Calabria, but unfortunately the light and the distance I had been deceived: they were mere children Grebes Podiceps nigricollis .
When the disappointment seemed to have gained the upper hand for the non-observation of the two "horns", I decide to move in a more sheltered from the strong south-west coast, and soon the idea was excellent.
Among a small group of saffron (14), Yellow-legged Gulls (6) and Gull reefs (2), there are also 1 adult and a beautiful ind. the first winter Gull Larus audouinii during . The immature disappeared from view shortly after, while the adult remains there until the afternoon. I can take some photos, but the subject is too far away and very little light. The images below represent the best that I could get (using over all a bit of digital zoom ...).
This observation represents the first case of the species wintering in Calabria. The gull, though not abundant, is a regular migrant along the Ionian coast of Calabria, but had never been reported in winter.

Progetto Rondini (LIPU Rende)

Ricevo e pubblico un estratto del comunicato di Roberto Santopaolo sull'avvio del Progetto Rondini della sezione LIPU Rende .
.
Caro Lettore, ti comunichiamo che è partita in questi giorni la prima fase del Progetto Rondini attraverso l'affisione, nei locali pubblici (negozi, bar, scuole, università, ecc.), di una locandina che spiega sinteticamente il Progetto.
.
(...) Per contrastare il declino di questo simpatico abitante delle nostre campagne, LIPU many years ago, launched the project Swallows at which our Chamber has joined from the beginning. This is a complex intervention strategy that includes measures of study, awareness and protection. One of these actions concern, locally, the census of the Swallow on our municipal area.
.
The Project includes the enumeration of this species by counting nests occupied by Swallow and the number of young people born in the year. Since the species used as nesting site stables, barns or abandoned houses, the first phase (February-March) involves the identification of these structures, while the actual census will run during the breeding season of the species, (April-July).
.
census at the end, if we find the resources necessary, a report will be produced in booklet form, which will be distributed to local schools educational purposes.
This initiative therefore aims to achieve significant results, both in the field of conservation awareness and environmental education.
(...) You can download the entire press release by right-clicking here . Below is the poster of the Project.

Applying Grommet Tape

Foto-report: Porto KR, 8.2.07

early February Afternoon spent at the port of Crotone. We are in the middle of winter and yet still remains exceptionally mild climate, it seems a day in early spring. Arrive at 14:30, squares tripod and telescope and start looking around. The two shelducks are always at sea, an adult female and an individual at the first winter. Mount the adapter to my camera and start digiscoping.
.

.
In one of the basins of the dredging of the port there is a new Egret that seems to rest after a hectic day activities. The white reflection in the water heralds the arrival of sunset ...
.

.
minutes pass and the light is getting warmer. A small group of Grebes Podiceps and children gathered together for the night in the middle of the stretch of sea in front of me. The white neck of their winter livery is painted orange and reflections on projects that seem to come from an impressionist painting.
.

.
Even the gulls gather, a bit more distant from my location. Along with seagulls (100 + ind.) and real (vs. ca 30), there are also 9 Zafferani (ssp. fuscus and graelsii , plus 2 Juv.).
.

.
Meanwhile, as the tones of light become more red-orange, the two shelducks join the group of loons, it being almost all the time to rest his head bent back.
.

.
Finally I see a Great Crested Grebe in full summer plumage, whose magnificent ridge breaks down several times in water barely rippled wavy reflections.
.

.
When the wind becomes colder, I understand that it is time to return home, partly because the light is increasingly scarce and does not allow me to photograph more than a decent (I'm using, among other things, the optical zoom 3x).
Other species sighted: Cormorant (10 +), Common Sandpiper (1), Kingfisher (2), hat, Chiffchaff, Robin, Beccamoschino.
