Today we had very few birds due to bad weather of clouds and rain at 8 degrees al day. We observed a short-toed eagle migrating, bearded tits right behind our trailer, an osprey hunting in the pond and little crake. Today we ringed 11 birds out of 10 species.
Today's birds are:
Water pipit Swallow Starling Willow warbler Yellow wagtail Redstart Cetti's warbler Wryneck Great reed warbler Brambling
Excellent bird. With this one, the number of bird species ringed at Aras reaches 157 and a total of 212 bird species have been observed at Aras since we started it in 2006. This is 46% of the bird species known from all of Turkey.
