Description
Deutsch: Kopf eines jungen Haubentauchers (Podiceps cristatus) in Slowenien
English: head of a juvenile Great Crested Grebe (Podiceps cristatus) showing characteristic black and white stripes. Picture was taken from hand during rescue operation in summer 2006. A mixed flock of Podiceps cristatus and Tachybaptus ruficollis was trapped in one of the receding pools that remained when the intermittent Lake Cerknica (Slovenia) dried out almost entirely. Birds were captured and taken to the nearby stable portion of the lake where they were released.
Français : Tête d'un Grèbe huppé (Podiceps cristatus) juvénile, montrant les rayures noires et blanches caractéristiques. Photo prise durant une opération de secours menée en été 2006. Une bande mêlée de Grèbes huppés et castagneux a été attrapée dans une zone du lac de Cerknica (Slovénie) en train de s'assécher, puis relâchée dans une partie permanente du lac.
Slovenščina: Glava mladiča čopastega ponirka (Podiceps cristatus) z značilnimi črnobelimi progami. Slikan iz roke med reševalno akcijo poleti 2006. Mešana jata čopastih in malih ponirkov je ostala ujeta v izginjajočem bazenčku, enem redkih ki so ostali, ko je Cerkniško jezero skoraj popolnoma presahnilo. Ptiče smo ujeli in prenesli v bližnji zadrževalnik s stabilnim vodostajem.
