Extremely early mowing in Nemunas Delta leads to nearly zero breeding success.
09.07.2008: At the beginning of June while monitoring of Aquatic Warbler in Nemunas delta (Lithuania) intensive moving was registered. Such early mowing took place at the AW breeding site - Sausgalviai meadows, which are SPA (Natura2000), established for protection of AW and Great snipe (in the area also present Spotted crake, Corncrake). It is illegal according to the EU Birds Directive, because the maintenance status of an SPA and a priority species is affected. The intensification of farming practices takes place not only in mentioned Sausgalviai meadows, but in all AW breeding sites in Nemunas delta.
