The brightening skies in the last few days have favoured the migration of great tits, blue tits and longtailed tits. On Saturday night there will be a storm, the cyclone is already moving near Iceland. So tomorrow should be interesting for bird observers. For Sunday a 20 m per second south-westerly wind is promised, and the EMHI (Estonian Meteorological and Hydrological Institute) has already issued warnings.
