OVERVIEW
see the first post in this thread - viewtopic.php?p=8466#p8466

SITUATION from Estonia to ... (we follow Kergu for the first time)



LAST BIRDMAP UPDATE
(more viewtopic.php?p=10446#p10446)



Kergu migrates with the transmitter for the first season - we don't know his wintering place.
Hopefully the transmitter will send new data again. However, we may have to wait until the spring for the new data, when it comes back into network range during spring migration.

We have to be patient and keep our fingers crossed. I very hope Kergu is O.K. (and his transmitter will send data again.)

Spring birdmap is starting from 15.02 (some times also later).

But Kergu can appear also later on the birdmap.
I am curious when and from where Kergu will send the first data in the spring and of course where he wintered.

I accidentally deleted the entire spring migration forum and re-uploaded the documentation from my archive
