about Keilak Lake and the wider area here (Nov. 8, 2017) https://www.looduskalender.ee/forum/vie ... 31#p554931

The area of L. Keilak in the dry season is about 5 km2 with a depth of about 2 m. In the wet season the area increases to over 30 km2 and the maximum depth is about 4 m. The rainfall in the region of Lake Keilak is about 640 mm per year ... The vegetation of the region around both lakes is dominated by Acacia seyal together with Balanites aegyptiaca and
various tall grasses. The rarer trees include Terminalia and Combretum. ... (source: Green, J., el Moghraby, A.I. & Ali, O.M.M. Hydrobiologia (1984) 110: 33. https://doi.org/10.1007/BF00025773)

very probably one of his feeding areas these days (Karl visited more wet areas and streams)

Sova,
BOCZ07 ZOL - ŻÓŁTY (YELLOW) find another good place for feeding


In Hungary is that stork since April (all summer and still in that area). Maybe the good weather is the reason (also the cranes - birdmap - are still in HU).
That is young stork from previous year, last winter stork spend the time in Saudi Arabia (south from Tabuk) - here: https://bit.ly/2Bcpvb4, https://bit.ly/2BeiBlR and https://bit.ly/2OOFOPc.

I know in that moment nothing more/new about Yellow
(btw. BS are on feeding places time to time also in big groups, but on the way the are usually in small groups or also alone)

[sova]

Thank you Solo

... I'm very worried about Eedi ... It is not normal. ...

Liz,
yes, it is very unusual for him - I still hope, that he is only in area without GSM coverage, but this waiting on new data is very hard time

[sova]

good Morning

This Polish / Hungarian BS (BOCZ07 ZOL) fascinates me. I really want to know where to go and when. Or maybe he stays there, in Hungary.

Sova,
I'm sorry, but pls, no here the weather
it is reason why I leave from Karls family thread - in my opinion they are too much and too big pics about weather and who can explain the storks behaviour and the weather situation day by day
have a heart for that, thank you very, very much

[Liz01]

........who can explain the storks behaviour and the weather situation day by day ....

I think so too.
