It is the second time in a row that Karula slept at this location, close to the riverbank.
Probably he is sleeping in one of these trees. Here is a closer view of the night area.

Yes Anne ... I'm worried, too. And, it is sad that Karl's nest is occupied. I know ... it's nature ...
I can not turn my heart off.

It is nature, you are right, but all this is very sad for our friend Karl.
My biggest concern at the moment is to know if he is still alive...

In fact, I also feel kind of sorry for the Stranger.
He also deserves to be happy and appreciated.
He also deserves to get a real name. (Although he certainly doesn't care about a name!

He clearly is a nice, hardworking and beautiful BS too.

Anne, Sova, Hellem and all, good evening,
But there's still a little hope that only his transmitter is defective. Then Karl will arrive in Karula Park in about 7 days.
So sad this would be for the awesome "stranger" (I don't call him so. Yes, he deserved a name, too); I wish Karl that he will reach Estonia and his nest.
Let Karl and the new male having a fight or two ... All is better than a Karl who stays in Syria for ever.
Thanks a lot, Anne and Sova, for the tracker maps and weather data. Hopefully our little Karula, the youngest of the siblings, stays healthy and well.
Good night, dear friends.

Anne, I feel exactly the same, in everything you've written. I'm so in worry about our Karl. He didn't deserve to end up dying in Syria in an unnatural way. :'(Anne7 wrote: April 5th, 2019, 10:30 pm Me neither, Sova.

Good morning everyone!
Päikes transmitter stopped working 07.10.2018
Maru died on 25.02.2019, but last data from her transmitter came 26.02.2019
Karls transmitter stopped working 29.03.2019
Could it be so that both, Päike and Karl, are now traveling in an unknown place for us?
