-Og?
Kvaliteten på billederne giver ikke anledning til mange funderinger; men som art kan der vel ikke være noget særligt i at se en topskarv ved Sortehavskysten.
Er der en særlig forklaring på, at den er sat på som raritet (Cap Kaliakra i Bulgarien ligger ikke mange km syd for Rumænien.)Er lidt nysgerrig....
Det har jeg så nu.
Jeg reagerede uden at have set den. Ville nu nok have reageret alligevel.Der er omkring 50 km fra Kaliakra, hvor den er almindelig og til den rumænske grænse- har i øvrigt også set den endnu tættere på grænsen (ca. 20 km, så jeg er stadig lidt af et ?
På den anden side kender jeg intet til rumænsk feltornitologi og spekulerer om der er dér den ligger...
Hi Erik and Jan!
Thank you for your comments on Netfugl, regarding the Ph. aristotellis image.
Erik, it is not a Podiceps griseigena, it is a juvenile Shag. I sent you several other images in private mail.
Yes, the species breeds in Bulgaria in a small colony (less than 250 pairs) in Cap Kaliakra (Bulgaria), aprox. 45 km in direct line from the place where we found in autumn 2012.
We had till now about 10 reports about the occurrence of the species in Romania, but no any certainly confirmed by pictures or film! Most of the records are old and based only on observation with old binoculars and no scope.
So this was the reason I mentioned "the first certainly confirmed record for Romania".
Excepting Cap Kaliakra, along the Bulgarian seashore Tyulenovo is the only place where the Shag's presence is considered relatively regular (but even here is not common and numerous!). This place is 28 km far from the location from the place where our birds were found.
I agree with you, because we also consider and we are almost sure that the species occur more regularly in southern Romanian shore (probably mainly in post breeding period), but even as a result of a kind of systematic searching in the past years, they presence on Romanian waters wasn't confirm certainly till this autumn.
Totally we identified 1 adult and 4-5 juveniles.
The whole length of the Romanian seashore is without any rocky place and it is very well known. So it is no any chance that possible breeding of the Shag in Romania was overlooked.
Best wishes,
Szilard
Hi,
Sorry, OK, G. stellata and not P. griseigena. It was my mistake when I translated the Danish text into Hungarian with Google translator to try to understand your discussions.
Regards,
Szilard
