birdmap info:
Adult Black Stork whos territory is situated in west-central Estonia. He used artificial nest, refreshed it in spring (2021).
Nurme is from Rapla county. Nurme probably didn't find a mate either.
Timmu and Nurme started migration on the same day and found each other and flew together for a day.

edit: 29.07 Nurme came from north and Timmu was already soaring between Kilingi-Nõmme and Jäärja. They started flying together at 13.05. The next day, 30.07 their paths separated about at 17.10 in southern Belarus. Nurme went forward, Timmu stayed at familiar fish ponds. (thx Madli
