>> GENERAL >>>>><\/strong><\/p>\n

– medium-sized passerine, slightly smaller than Common Blackbird but longer wings
– nocturnal\/diurnal migrant<\/p>\n

>> FLIGHT >>>>><\/strong>

– migrate singly, as pairs (spring) in family parties (autumn)
– sometimes small flocks aggregate, but without real formation
– flight style somewhat between starling, a large thrush or a very large lark
– wings much longer than starlings
– flight straight and strong<\/p>\n

>> VISUAL ID >>>>><\/strong>

– spectacular colours of males often seen surprisingly late in approaching birds
– females appear monochrome and colours only really visible against a dark background<\/p>\n

>> SOUND ID >>>>><\/strong><\/p>\n

– is supposed to be non-vocal on migration
– a frequently uttered social call<\/em> nevertheless reveals small groups already from a greater distance – nevertheless not a real flight call!
– that slightly overslurred<\/em> call sounds squeaky, resembling Red Knot<\/a> or Bar-tailed Godwit<\/a>
– uttered as single calls, couplets<\/em> or triplets<\/em>
– contrary to many sources, uttered by adult and juvenile birds (in Autumn and Spring)<\/p>\n\n\n
