divagante

español al inglés Ciencias Zoología characterisation of phenological status
This word is bewildering me a little. It comes from a text about research into the local birdlife in central Spain.Thanks for your help.

"La caracterización del estatus fenológico indica el predominio de categorías fenológicas temporales (migratorias, ocasionales, divagantes y estivales) sobre las constantes en el tiempo (residentes). Ello se debe a la mayor estacionalidad y temporalidad de los sistemas palustres calatravos."

ranging/drifting

I don't know if this is technical term, but I think it's the right meaning, i.e. birds that "roam" over large areas. "Divagar" is another word for "vagar":
