So we could start these weekly notes, also on the basis of FEIN historical data acquired for over forty years and continuously monitored by theArosio Ornithological Observatory with the application of the same methodology that, year after year, makes them considered as a "unicum" on Song Thrush and which date back to 1940, as recent studies show this by Sergio Scebba, Walter Sassi and others. From here it should be noted that on the rainy day of October 15 - as has already happened over time - a more than positive movement of this turdid was noticed which continuously and consistently began its movement from 3 October and in this way it took place simultaneously in the south of France and along the Greek coasts.
In short, an almost simultaneous departure from northern Europe towards the warm southern shores. Thanks also to the collaboration of other observers and enthusiasts, we can then consider that other species, almost absent in recent years, have appeared in excellent numbers. Eg the Coal Tit, the Peppola, the Frosone and the Siskin. It should be noted that there are still trans-Saharan migrants such as the Northern Wheatear in the area. The Colombaccio pass is also excellent if not excellent, where in central Italy its migration allows numerous flocks to be seen in movement.
Satisfactory, especially in the north, the first appearance of the Redwing and Woodcock, while in the countryside of some Italian regions the Skylarks and Pispole are found in good numbers. The same situation was noted for the Starling and the Blackbird in the territories congenial to them, while for Common snipe and anatidae there is generally nothing particular to report. The week thus ended with rains that affected northern Italy and good weather with temperatures above the norm in the center and south (ANUUMigratoristi).
