Miss Mid.

The weather on the morning of August 26th was favorable for travel, and Mr. Middle took advantage of it. He had paused in the Latvian village of Budele where he was well fed and got his compass bearings. His flight trajectory was very close to optimal. In one day, Middle flew over 400 kilometers and made it to a fish pond near the Belarussian village of Kobõlki. 400 kilometers is quite a day's journey for a black stork. The next day Middle flew an additional twenty or so kilometers to the southeast where he made it to a collective farm's cow operation, whose manure pile he inspected on the 28th of August.

The eagle club's geneticist Ülo has completed his first tests. It turns out that Donna and Padis' children are all daughters. Our traveling friend is therefore Miss Middle.
