Part 1 • В поисках гнездовий ди...
We found pebbles, a cave, fireflies, fortune tellers, lizards, wasps with their houses, wild steppe cherries and wild strawberries. We were found by clouds of mosquitoes and a tick.
It was a great trip.
We checked five places where the eagle owls usually nested, found feathers from molting and fresh toadstools. There were no chicks. Either the owls chose other places, or this year it was not possible to hatch the chicks due to various factors from lack of food, to anxiety because of people.
It is amazing what beautiful and interesting places can be found almost in a flat field.
