Summary
This study assessed microplastic ingestion by wading birds in Croatian coastal wetlands through fecal analysis, finding particles in samples from multiple species. Dietary overlap with microplastic-contaminated prey items and direct incidental ingestion during feeding were proposed as primary exposure pathways for waterbirds in Adriatic coastal environments.
