Field experiments 2017 - Doupovské hory
In 2017, our shrike-research continued in Doupovské hory under the leadership of Míša Syrová. With the help of Honza Havlíček and Jája Beránková, they managed to collect a suitable number of experiments despite the fact that the breeding season of shrikes was delayed this year. At the beginning and at the end of the field research, bird captures were carried out with the help of Petr Veselý, Majkl Němec, Terka Hromádková, Saša Průchová and Tomáš Minařík.

Abstract:
For a long time Corn crake (Crex crex) was labeled as endangered species, so it is useful to observe its population size and occupied localities. In 2005–2009, occurrences of Corn crake were mapped in Kraslice district and occasional observations were performed in Karlovy Vary region. In most localities, Corn crakes nested only once that year, some localities served as a regular breeding place. The situation between years was stable. In the text, we advise some management which could lead to preservation or increase in the Corn crake population. The most effective way is a shift of first grass-cutting day to August.
