email by Urmas:

hereby I can inform that Kergu Tibu and most probably 7202 left fish
basket and started migration yesterday at 10:38 (local time). About 3 PM
Tibu stopped in Latvia (nearly 90 km of fish basket). That is caused by
rain.

Day before, at late evening I provided fish into basket, that was eaten
by herons and both storklets quite quickly in morning.

Last picture of with storklets and some more photos of yesterday
enclosed, incl. todays morning view of fish basket place (after heavy rain).

It will be easier now, one (first priority) task less for me...

​​Орлан белохвост похоже был. (It looked like a white-tailed eagle.)

WTE - white tailed eagle (maybe the biggest danger in the wild for black storks)
