4 days at Lago Maggiore, where we met Steven Hampton, Nadia und Cara, and also heard or saw a number of birds
We visited friends from Australia in Ticino but stayed in Italy in Comegno at the Lago Maggiore. I submitted my Zoom H6 recording of Blackcap warblers a.k.a. Eurasian blackcaps or Moenchgrasmuecken to xeno-canto.org as XC919027. There you hear the typical dialect the birds sing in Ticino and Italy, a different ending from what I hear at home every day near Zurich.
A total of 2 species is included, 2 of them have been observed.
