Cranes about Carinthia: What the bird rabble means

In Carinthian sky, an impressive natural spectacle is currently taking place that amazes many residents. An unpredictable bird cries out over the roofs, and a view of the hundreds of birds that move over the sky in characteristic V-formation. This unusual scenery causes many people in the region to ask what bird species it could be.

"We are currently receiving a variety of reports about this impressive phenomenon," reports Andreas Kleewein, Managing Director of Birdlife Carinthia. According to Kleewein, there are often misunderstandings regarding bird species. Many people incorrectly assume that it is gray geese, as these typically fly in similar formations. In fact, however, it is cranes who are on their traditional train to the winter quarters, which is happening between the end of October and early November.

The fascination of the cranes

cranes are known for their long trips that they do every year. They start in the cooler northern regions and move to warmer areas where they can spend the winter. This V-formation not only has an aesthetic value, but also plays an important role in the energy saving of birds. Due to the special flight style, you reduce the air resistance, which helps you to make your trips more efficient.

The impressive performances in the sky are not only a festival for the eyes, but also captivate many natural observers. Interest in this natural spectacle has increased in recent years, and it is not uncommon for people to gather to observe and document these majestic animals in their natural environment. Kleewin emphasizes how important it is to be informed about nature and its inhabitants in order to avoid misunderstandings and value the beauty of animals.

These remarkable views are not only the result of chance, but also part of a seasonal cycle that is well documented in the animal world. The hike of the cranes is a traditional event that is symbolically celebrated in many cultures, since it shows the change of seasons and underlines the connection between the habitats of birds and its reproduction success.

The residents are invited to start looking for these spectacular birds in order to experience the unique spectacle of nature up close.
