Birds in August
Although many waders and some Old World Warblers have already left the country, August is the month when autumn starts in earnest in the world of birds. Many small birds are now leaving the island, but then they move at night, this migration passes a bit unnoticed. During the day, one can notice that migration time is on its way, as sometimes large flocks of Western Yellow Wagtails is seen foraging on the meadows and the Tree Pipits calling sound often heard over the heads of us. Large flocks of Barn Swallows are also gathered in the reeds around the wetlands in the evenings.
