Our storks appear on the map continuously when they reach areas with GSM coverage after starting their journey north.
in this thread we follow the 2nd spring migration of the (fe)male black stork named KUREMARI (adult - 5 CY, hatched 2021 40 km northeast of Riga)
KUREMARI colour ring number:OXUJ
KUREMARI is an interesting choice of name. In direct translation it means Stork's berry and it is a folk name for cranberries. (info by our Madli - thx!) This stork with Latvian rings (ringed near Pabažie) was caught by Urmas and equiped with trasnmitter.
Kuremari winters probably again in Ehtiopian highlands (north-eastern Ethiopia) https://www.ciconianigra.sk/viewtopic.p ... 522#p39522
