The beginning...


Hi there.

Yesterday in a very hot afternoon, I set off for a short walk to check what was going on in my LP in the last day of july as I expected something of  migration movement on the way.

I wasn't wrong and I detected six wader species with the special bonus of the first "peep" of the summer, with a nervous and solitary little stint lingering in the muddy flat east area.

Finally I saw three marsh sandpipers,two very wary ruffs,one bw stilt ,two green sandpipers and  more a dozen common sandpipers by far the most numerous shorebird in Zolina reservoir.
