Secrets of Meadow Birds in the National Park
A biologist from the National Park, Ivan Rusev, shared this information.
He indicated that meadow pipits typically inhabit wide, muddy shores of estuaries and salt marshes, seeking cozy places for nesting.
These birds are known for their smooth and graceful flight, characterized by high speed and a variety of movements. The meadow pipit primarily forages in the air, gliding through the sky.
In much of its European range, the population of the meadow pipit is significantly declining due to environmental changes, the biologist noted.
He also added that as a rare species, the meadow pipit is protected under the Red Book of Ukraine, the Bonn and Bern Conventions, the AEWA Agreement, and the EU Directive on the conservation of wild birds.
