Eurasian Crane - 2023


Ahja F - 2021 -
The Common Crane "Ahja F" is the female of a nesting pair of cranes on the edge of Ahja village, marked in 2020. She lost her partner and one of her two offspring in late August 2022 due to a predator attack. The female returned alone from Ethiopia in the spring of 2023, but a new pair of cranes had taken over the territory. The old female was attacked by them but remained in the area, and in June, she successfully found a new male partner with whom she stayed in the territory until autumn. The crane pair did not nest in 2023. This autumn of 2023, we will find out if finding a new partner also means changes in their usual migration route



Ahjapoeg2 2020 - 2020 -
