The spring/summer migration stops in mid-August and the autumn/winter migration continues from the following day, the 15th = the bird map is set for autumn/winter migration and the new distance measurement starts from 15.08. However, the birdmap is sometimes ready a week or two later.
in this thread we follow TRAUMA, adult female (we follow Trauma's 2nd autumn-winter migration with transmitter)
TRAUMA (edit: ring number deleted)
data source:
https://birdmap.5dvision.ee/EN/2025/aut ... =0&speed=1
birdmap description: (2024)
A Black Stork caught in Pärnumaa County, probably a female bird. Its breeding is unknown because it was caught at the end of the breeding season. She got its name from the fact that during the installation of the transmitter, an old but healing ulcer appeared on the side of the body - probably trauma from some kind of collision.
Black Storks were fed at the fishing site since the beginning of May, but it is not entirely certain whether there was only one specimen or several.
Trauma started its 2024 autumn migration on July 25, but not immediately towards the wintering area, but spent time in Latvia, Belarus and Lithuania. The migration stopover is located in northwestern Turkey on the Ergene River.
