Flock_of_cranes_feeding_on_harvested_fields_in_Northern_Germany_(I).jpg


Summary

Description
Deutsch: Kraniche (Grus grus) sammeln sich im Herbst in großer Zahl in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern und in Brandenburg und rasten hier in Vorbereitung auf den Weiterflug nach Süden. Am Günzer See werden Anfütterungen vorgenommen, um die Tiere für die Weiterreise zu stärken. Diese Futterstellen werden auch von andern Vögeln, z.B. riesigen Schwärmen von Staren genutzt.
English: In autumn, gigantic numbers of cranes (Grus grus) gather in the northern federal states of Germany to rest and prepare for the long journey to the south. In some places such as the Günzer lake in Mecklenburg-Vorpommern the birds are fed by wheat that has been scattered the night before. This is gladly accepted as a food source also by large flocks of starlings.
