“Nova”, an adult bird from the breeding colony in Kuchl, has headed south as planned – but is currently taking the wrong route.
The bald ibis flew in Friuli to the Adriatic coast and across the sea to Croatia. He is currently in the Rijeka area. This shows his GPS tracking device. The area is dangerous for the Northern Bald ibises. Several animals from the breeding colony found their way to Croatia as early as 2019. You were shot down. “Nova is an experienced adult and should sooner or later realize that it is on the wrong path,” the experts from the “Waldrapp team” hope. So the bird could well move on to the south.
