Opis
The Lago di Cornino reserve is named after Lake Cornino, a small lake of clear deep blue water, and borders the mighty Tagliamento River, the last “free” river in Europe. It was established in 1996 but the project of re-introducing sęp płowy to the region dates back to the 1980s. At that time about 75 vultures were released and a feeding point was created. According to the reserve’s website, the colony currently has about 150 griffons in winter and over 200 in spring and summer, when individuals arrive from other Mediterranean countries, and about 30 pairs nest along the central section of the valley of the River Tagliamento. Other large birds that can be observed circling above the sheer rock walls or around the feeding station include ścierwnik, sęp kasztanowaty, orzeł przedni, kania ruda and kania czarna.
During spring and autumn migration one may also spot several less common birds of prey such as gadożer , Trzmielojad , rybołów, błotniak zbożowy, błotniak stawowy, błotniak łąkowy and kobczyk.
Other species commonly observed around the visitor centre and the lake include kapturka , słowik rdzawy , sójka , głuszek and świstunka górska. puchacz, puszczyk zwyczajny and pójdźka also inhabit the area.
