Anne7 often edits her posts
now there is this situation = she added later to her post this text:
"© LKF - all rights reserved
All tracker maps are created exclusively for the Looduskalender forum."

so I delete my maps from previous post - I don't have time now to check whether it is in accordance with the rules of sharing information from freely available sources
I will ask my lawyer friends for their opinion, but they are on vacation now
and I will prepare other maps later - done

Kaia searched for food in one ditch and on the nearby field and flew for night resting to the edge of one forest area

"KAIA's transmitter sent no update yesterday evening nor this morning."

She is most probably on the territory of Ukraine and there prof. PZ assumes possible interference
(even Fago did not send data yesterday - "there may be deliberate interference to the gps signal " - info here: viewtopic.php?p=8259#p8259)

[marika.solo]

I was notified by one of the members of both forums that this post is now without this note:

"© LKF - all rights reserved
All tracker maps are created exclusively for the Looduskalender forum."

Anne7 edited her post at least plus 3 more times during yesterday's day: 2 times she added next additional text and the third edit was the deletion of all these additions.

Please without comments here (if so via PM)
