In the Oka Biosphere Reserve, two couples of Siberian cranes (Grus leucogeranus) from Yakutia, named Uchur, Samgym, Sergei and Banyl, are followed by four 24-hour cams - http://www.aif.ru/sterkh - from mid- or late April till fledglings learn to fly after a hang glider. This is part of a global project, Flight of Hope, to conserve the population of Siberian cranes. One couple has an egg already.

(The TV test pattern says 'Transmission will resume automatically'.)
