Hello
The ring number of Karl II is 716? Is that a C or who knows exactly what number the black stork in the photo of Urmas has? Except Urmas

The picture as a reminder



Interesting to see whether we will see in one or two days this black stork.

Church of Pokrovskaya in Pribolovichi

Intercession Church - a monument of wooden architecture. Built in 1794. The temple consists of a prayer hall, the refectory porch. In the 19th century bunk was attached the bell tower. Regional value (https://pda.ekskursii.by/en/?Dostoprime ... aya_cerkov)

... In 1825 it was renovated, enlarged ... The Germans burned the village, but the temple remained intact. ... In 1988 the church was completely renovated and painted ... (scroll down to photo and the description https://fgb.by/viewtopic.php?p=50221&si ... f03e41826e)

His ring was 716C

Thank you @Heloise

Karl II is not that far away anymore. Belarus on April 8. According to the weather radar, he seems to have a favorable tailwind. The stormy wind in Estonia calms down a bit.

Hopefully everything will go well for the last part of the way north and Karl II will come safely to the nest.

By this time prepare a fish or a very big frog and put it in the nest, please.

Yes, we tried, but frogs and fish representatives were not agree to sign contract digitally. So everything goes on in an old way. Sorry!
Webcam will probably show Karl II's return earlier as we receive todays tracking data late evening... But nothing sure in nature!

Hello everyone,

Karl II may arrive at the nest any minute now. From his position today at 10:36 (UTC+3) to the Estonian border it is only about 170 km. At a flying speed of 50 km/h, he should actually already be here.

Many thanks, Jo, for opening this topic!

Asteria , well said.

...

Maybe he went fishing first,
or maybe he is inspecting the area to see if everything is still in order ?

Come on, Karl II, we are all here to welcome you....
We can hardly wait to see you again.

[Jo UK]

I am going to connect my PC to my TV. Then I can recline, drink tea and watch the nest!

[Anne7]

Sounds like a good plan, Jo!

[Polly]

I like that sense of humor.


I only compassionate reader here but I wish you, but first our storks ... all a successful and positive time!

All of you here are worthy observers of this nest! I respect your work and the power to deal with bad situations. Thanks for that.

Let's go!

the exciting question is, was it Karl II equipped with a transmitter or was it another black stork. I am curious .. soon we will know
so you shouldn't have set the migration data here yet. There is still no evidence that we saw Karl II on the map.

.....The black stork Karl II, added to the migration map, is likely a male bird that nests in a webcam nest in Karula National Park, but we definitely won't be able to tell until next spring. .....

is there a rule on how to post an article that I posted last year? I think it should be very easy to determine what is meant. The link to the post is available. I was advised that it was not okay what I do!

That’s true, Liz
I really hope it’s him... but we still have to wait and see...
