The walnut is a typical alpine species of the <a title=\"Ravens\" href=\"https:\/\/sk.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Krkavcovit%C3%A9\">raven<\/a> family. It lives in the Palearctic in coniferous forests. In Slovakia, it occurs in coniferous forests in the hills of central and eastern Slovakia, especially from 600 &#8211; 1,200 m    n. m. In the Tatras, it climbs and nests up to 1500 m n. m. It visits feeders and closer to human settlements very rarely. This year, however, is marked by the invasion of this species in locations where we would not normally expect it. Nutcrackers also began to appear in southern and western Slovakia. And since they show very little shyness, in many cases lower than the typical &#8220;Tatra nutcrackers&#8221;, there is a high assumption that this mass eruption is from the north. It is therefore likely that it could be the Siberian subspecies <i>N. c. macrorhynchus<\/i>. We will try to catch this individual in the coming days, examine in detail the signs that could confirm the mentioned subspecies and mark it with an ornithological ring.     <\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"50461282 10212988728448764 5369890738517573632 n\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-800\" src=\"https:\/\/npvelkafatra.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/50461282_10212988728448764_5369890738517573632_n.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"512\" height=\"533\" srcset=\"https:\/\/npvelkafatra.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/50461282_10212988728448764_5369890738517573632_n.jpg 512w, https:\/\/npvelkafatra.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/50461282_10212988728448764_5369890738517573632_n-480x500.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 512px) 100vw, 512px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/juraj.ziak.75\/videos\/10215349630587501\/UzpfSTE2ODM2NzE0MzI0MjQ3OToxOTg5MDEwMzIxMTc4MTQz\/<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"Ore\u0161nica\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-776\" src=\"https:\/\/npvelkafatra.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/ore%C5%A1nica.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\"> <img alt=\"Ore\u0161nica perlav\u00e1 - nov\u00fd druh na k\u0155mitku spr\u00e1vy NP Ve\u013ek\u00e1 Fatra.\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-775\" src=\"https:\/\/npvelkafatra.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/or.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" srcset=\"https:\/\/npvelkafatra.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/or.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/npvelkafatra.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/or-500x281.jpg 500w, https:\/\/npvelkafatra.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/or-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/npvelkafatra.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/01\/or-1024x576.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Text: Ing.
