2024 (!) Skierka spent 143 days on the Struma. She took off from Greece on March 3 at 9:00 a.m. and landed in Poland at the nest in the Bolewice Forest District on March 11 at 14:00. Of course, she wasn't flying all the time during those 8 and a half days. It rested at night, fed in the morning and then continued through North Macedonia, Serbia, Hungary and Slovakia. She covered approximately 1,400 km in a straight line.

to Bolewice Forestry District. Along the way she passed all the nests she knew for a total of 8 nests and stopped at one of her favourite feeding grounds between the lakes of Miedzichowski Park Krajobrazowy. In 8 days she covered 
1520 km, a fast spring pace. Along the way she only stopped for one day at the Reserve Stawy Milickie, but rather only because there was a cold front and gusty wind in N Poland yesterday. Welcome to the country 
"
However, this year she still does not fly to Poland 
, which is shown by today's readings. Why so ? Temporary warming here, but by the #Struma river in Macedonia it is still very cold 
, especially at nights when temperatures over the past week have reached as much as -1 degree Celsius. Perennial average weekly temperatures preceding the day of departure 
Powinna być przy gnieździe ciągu kilku dni. Dobrze żeby Królewicz by wcześniej.
Jeśli dopisze jej wiatr (najlepiej ciepły i południowy) powinna spotkać się z #Królewiczem już za 2-3 dni. Czekamy
