Sonicare Toothbrush Charging Without A Charger

Foto-report: foce Passovecchio (KR), 11.08.07

.

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.
