Half an hour of angry tearing and the image from the crane migration camera was gone. The microphone remained working on the batteries and we could only witness that the wrecking of the set-up lasted almost an hour altogether…

We will go to tidy up the remains in the next few days and not until then will it be possible to say what can be reset or repaired or requires exchanging. From the sound it might be believed that the solar panels, fastened to dogrose shrubs with sharp thorns and strong branches, were also trampled down.

Black stork cameras in Estonia and Latvia

As the viewers of the nest life of the black storks already know, nesting results differed in the two nests observed. In Latvia, in the nest that until now had bred chicks successfully, the nesting did not succeed. Maybe the female that was briefly in place was not the same who nested there earlier, and a breeding pair did not develop with the male that arrived later. So we could see how a single male bird built a nest and visited it regularly. As our Latvian colleague Maris Strazds writes, many females visited the nest but none stayed.
