— The sentence: “Immature individuals predominantly remain in their African wintering areas until they reach breeding age, although some move northwards from the wintering grounds but do not reach their natal areas”,
should read:
“ Immature individuals predominantly remain in their African wintering areas until they reach breeding age, although some move northwards from the wintering grounds but usually do not reach their natal areas”
This is because immature spoonbills do reach Carpathian Basin regularly, although in low numbers.
