Following Karls' Families

[sova]

...
Every time I really started to worry, Karula started flying normal distances again.[/i]

Karula realized that he is a bird

[Jo UK]

Still waiting for Karula's data to be ready. Maybe it is late, or perhaps this is another of those failed days?
Try again in 10 minutes -
No new data today. Next data expected tomorrow.

incredible work you do all here, thanks a lot

b]Vol'ka [/b](747 m / speed 86 km / h) - 36 km / h (NW) - 10 °

86km/h are unbelievable! imagine you could see it over you in the sky - you could not follow with your eyes... aru ist really very fit

hope, everything is going on like this

All graphics seem to be perfectly normal...

Thank you, Anne7, you, as always, give meaningful information. It was very interesting and encouraging. The temperature does not fall below 21 degrees (body temperature + ambient air), but still there is no summer heat. Perhaps this should encourage Aru to fly South. The good news is that all of its turns on all axes are bright, so it's actively moving, though not very to the South... Thank you for the information and your work.

Tatiana, watch the latest tracker map of our little Oru!

Aru had a resting day.
S/he has been exploring the area. Clever bird!





Aru's current location

About the temperature display. It cannot be the body temperature of the bird. 21C is much too low. A bird's body temperaure is said to be 37C to 40C. There has to be another way to interpret these values.

Jo ... thank you for the tracker map!
We are all happy .... only .... I miss Karula.

Jo , as I mentioned here: viewtopic.php?p=693602#p693602

The temperature measured by the transmitter is not the bird's body temperature, neither the ambient temperature.
It is the temperature of the transmitter (measured inside the transmitter), and is therefore determined by: the ambient temperature + (eventual) direct exposure to sun rays (radiant heat) + the body temperature of the bird.

If the ambient temperature is 20° and the bird has a normal body temperature of 40°, the temperature in the transmitter will be in between.
If the bird (the transmitter) is exposed to direct sun radiation, the temperature of the transmitter can become very high.
And when a bird perished, the temperature of the transmitter will drop much more at night than usual. (It takes the ambient temperature and is no longer heated by the bird's body.)


ARU's current area.
It looks as if Aru found a nice area. I wonder if s/he will stay here for a while.


Photo 1. I believe this looks fine for a black stork.

Yes he is, Juta!!!

ARU

What a flight!


The start, this morning. Aru came very close to the previous pond, but didn't visit it.


Breakfast lasted almost 3 hours. This looks like a ditch, I think. At 10:13:46 (UTC+3), Aru started travelling.

Hi t all,Im so glad Aru finally caught the wind in the wings.Im worried thatOru is hanging around the Warzewo reserve for so long .Maybe somethings wrong with him or she?Unfortunately,here recently someone shot a black stork.YOU cant get information from which nest.Maybe youll find out something?Good night for everyone.

Hello everyone,

Some pictures from ARUs positions on 15.09.2019.

The locations of the feeding places I've taken from Anne's first picture in this post (and from the tracker map):
viewtopic.php?p=693637#p693637

All pictures have view to south. Here the viewing height is 7,28 km.


Viewing height is 1,69 km.


In feeding place 2 ARU was on the edge of a small brook.
Viewing height is 768 m.


It's indeed a nice looking area. Aru has of course good eyes to check the landscape before he lands.
Many thanks to all for todays beautiful pictures of the area, informations, tracker maps and cards.
I‘m very glad that Oru flies again.

Anne, Sova

Good morning all together

Summary of black stork nest web camera 2019 by Urmas Sellis https://www.looduskalender.ee/n/index.php/en/node/3805

(thanx Hellem for hint in Black Stork Nest in Karula 2019 thread)

[Abigyl]

Good Morning!

I was so glad to see that the 2 kids are now at the same level (approx). Like last year, each is choosing his own way.
Let's hope both will arrive to good places with food and fresh water.

I am very worried about Eedi and hope he won't go to Saudi Arabia with all the flames of oil fields.
