Krum (male, hatched 2023) wintering 2024-25

[marika.solo]

whole day 10.11.2024 (correct data/depiction)

Bulgaria: Popovitsa - a village in Municipality Sadovo, District of Plovdiv

- So far, Krum seems to have found the perfect place: he spends the night in the area of Martvitsata (protected area) and fewer than 2 km to the north he forages and rests by the irrigation canals and in the local rice fields.
- Zdá sa, že Krum si nateraz našiel ideálne miesto: nocuje na území Martvitsata (chránené územie) a menej ako 2 km na sever hľadá potravu a odpočíva pri zavlažovacích kanáloch a na miestnych ryžových poliach.
