Old issue, new cases – protected birds were poisoned again
Pallid Harrier
Poisoned birds were found again by Milvus Group employees near Salonta, Bihor County. Our environment gets poorer with every perished bird, and this is even more true for endangered, rare species. Previously an Eastern Imperial Eagle was found poisoned, and recently a very rare species, a Pallid Harrier was found which can be observed in our country only in migration. Prosecutions have started, and we hope that this time the authorities will act and finally someone will take responsibility for poisoning for so many years and this excessive raptor killing will be stopped.

Mounting artificial nests and searching for new Lesser Spotted Eagle nests
While all Lesser Spotted Eagles started their spring migration in Africa, Milvus Group has started their seasonal conservation activities in Romania for the eagles arriving back home.
One of the most important activities is searching for new eagle nests. While there are no leaves on the trees it is easier to find the nest of raptors. Until now we visited 12 forests in 9 days in the Natura 2000 sites from Valea Nirajului and Podișul Hârtibaciului. Continue reading

Number 5 of the trimonthly report of the Milvus Rehabilitation Center (October-December 2012)
The number of birds arrived in the Rehabilitation Centre decreased between October-December compared to the previous period. Fortunately this year we didn’t have to confront the usual high number of weakened birds from early winter as we expected, as the temperatures were low and the snow cover was thick. Although the number of persons who contacted us was significant (33), relatively few birds, only 11 individuals were transported to us. Other 12 birds were treated directly through telephone advices.

Database about Waxwing invasion
www.lanius.ro
It seems that this winter we can expect a new wave of invasion of Waxwings (Bombycilla garrulus) also in Romania.
As in the winter 2004-2005, Milvus Group decided to collect all the possible data of the species again, in order to evaluate this influx’s magnitude and spatial distribution in Romania.
We apply for all who have any Waxwing data from the 2012-2013′s winter period, we ask them to send these data to the following e-mail address szilárd.daroczi@milvus.ro with the subject “bombycilla”.
We will collect these data up to 1st May 2013. Please provide the following information about the observations: date, locality name (or GPS location), county, number of observed birds and the observer(s) name. After data analysis and processing we will inform all the observers about the results of the survey!
About the 2004-2005’s waxwing winter count result’s result you can read more and you can find information above the attached link: http://milvus.ro/Migrans/2005mar.pdf
