The delay of the winter season is causing a delay, if not a cancellation, of the arrival of the Cesena.
Winter is struggling to take off and, even on a European scale, the temperature is not yet for the first decade of December. There is no cold capable of changing the mild temperatures of the Mediterranean. European meteorologists, close to our hunting world, predict a more decisive lowering of temperatures only after 10 December.
In the days of our old hunters (before the 40s of the last century), in the absence of the legendary Cesena, it was customary to interrupt the activity of stalking hunting fixed at the feast of the Immaculate Conception to resume it after the Epiphany, in order to take advantage of those classic habitual erratic movements after the last ten days of January.
This was written in the past, when there was not that permanent conflict that instead appears typical of these times, without a rational, real interest in the conservation status of migratory species, because what matters, for too many, is only and only to prohibit hunting.
However, the persistence of the absence of this species, moreover of a markedly unpredictable nature (much more than the majority of other migratory birds), does not leave us much hope of observing it by the end of the year. We will see what happens.
