Wildlife, birds of prey and natural philosophy in the mountains

🍁 The clear mountain air and the majestic backdrop of the snow-capped peaks characterize the beauty of the transitional period between autumn and winter. 🏔️

The minibus will take us from Bergün into the alpine terrain and we will search the mountain slopes and rocky areas for birds of prey and wild animals immediately after getting off. It will be particularly exciting with the bearded vultures. 🦅 The imposing birds already begin their courtship in late autumn. Why they have a different annual plan than, for example, the golden eagles, Andreas Kofler tells us on the way. We also track down red deer. They are in the rut at this time of year and we may get to hear the imposing roaring. 🦌

On this tour, things also get a bit philosophical: Andreas Kofler's favorite color is October. Why this is so and what he means by it, we learn on the way.

Autumn is the time of harvest and abundance, but it is also the time when nature adjusts to winter, i.e. the hard and barren season.
