My pleasure, Ari
Yes, it is fascinating to see where our youngsters are. :-)

Anne, thanks for the tracker map
Karula's data is available. He was blown away today (a bit)

Sova, many thanks for the weather reports!
I am so glad that our little Karula was just blown away a bit...

Good evening,

:hi : Michi,
"wodno – torfowiskowy rezerwat przyrody „Warzewo" = a water - peat bog/the swampy nature reserve 'Warzewo" (there must be enough for black storks appropriate, typical food)

white storks have here in Warzewo meeting place :-) (more photos)

ORU must be careful, they are here also predators: https://bit.ly/30smIoG

Thank you, Solo, for the information!
But on the the first link you have posted, there are no photos. At least not for me. There's only Polish text.
And the pics in the second link - the predators - are these wolves? It's not clear to see.
I'm relieved to read by Anne, that Oru most likely has slept on a tree.

Hello, Michi and Ari : hi:
Thanks for your daily pictures!

But no worries, it looks like Oru spent the night from 20 to 21 August on a tree in the little forest. : D

That's good to read. I came to the conclusion that Oru has slept in the field, because the trackermap from August 20th (complete day) showed Oru's last position at 20:43 in the field. Only now I have seen that the tracker map of the next day (21.08.2019) still showed data from August 20th after 20:43. At 20:48, five minutes later, Oru flew to that tiny forest where he most likely has slept.
This example shows that nothing should be assumed or interpreted. Our storklets also fly at somewhat later times.

Something else: The fact that the maps now show the location every 5 minutes (last year every 15 minutes) makes it very difficult to follow the paths in detail, at least for me.
But maybe it will be interesting later, e.g. in Israel, to see the location every 5 minutes.

Thank you very much all for the reports, weather maps, cards and tracker maps!

Michi, you're welcome

1/ I am sorry, I copied the link with opened pic Here you see Michi where to open the photos White Storks in area Warzowo on Aug. 18 (2014) (http://www.wlodawa.lublin.lasy.gov.pl/r ... V9xcnvgrIX):


2/ I think yes - wolves in these days (Aug.,2019) captured in Warzowo area ( https://bit.ly/30smIoG)

Hello everyone

On 17.08. Aru flew over the railway line. I do not see that on the bird card .... Why?
Tracker Map (17.08.)

bird card (23.08.)

[Solo]

...On 17.08. Aru flew over the railway line. I do not see that on the bird card .... Why? ...

sova,

birdmap is (very) simplified
- mayby only the morning and the evening localisations (2 point per day) are linked, but i am not sure how much localisations (not every 5 min. or 15 min. as on the tracker map we see)

Btw. BS female Mare - 5 points/localisations per day, PL BS storks - 3, HU BS male Zoltán - 1, ...


on the birdmap map you placed the arrow not on the right place - the yellow line by me


Aru and railroad crossing lines (TM -Aug.22; BM-Aug.23)

[sova]

on the birdmap map you placed the arrow not on the right place

Solo
I recorded direction ... I do not work with millimeter

[Solo]

Solo , I recorded direction ... I do not work with millimeter

sova, sorry , yes, the direction is O.K. on that day (TM 17.08.)
I was confused by the different date on the birdmap map - 23.08.

[Anne7]

Hello everyone

On 17.08. Aru flew over the railway line. I do not see that on the birdmap .... Why?
...

Hello Sova

This is because birdmap shows fewer details than tracker map.
Birdmap connects a smaller number of known location points (always with a straight line).

To clarify this, I have drawn a simple fictional example.
The blue line shows the actual flown route.
In this fictional example, the green line represents the tracker map. The location points are displayed every hour.
And the red line represents the birdmap. The location points are displayed every three hours.

The more locations are shown on a map, the better the line approaches the actual flown route.

The grey line represents a railway.
In reality, the bird crossed the railway twice. (2x forth and back)
On birdmap you will not see that the bird crossed the railway.
On tracker map you will see that the bird crossed the railway around 16:00, but not that he also crossed the railway between 12:00 and 13:00
