NURME colour ring number: 7153
data source: https://birdmap.5dvision.ee/EN/2023/aut ... =0&speed=1

birdmapdescription:

Adult Black Stork whos territory is situated in west-central Estonia. He used artificial nest, refreshed it in spring, but did not find female to produce brood in 2021. Started autumn migration in 2nd Aug, in 8 Aug reached stopover place in Ukraine. Wintering site in southern Sudan reached by mid October and second half of wintering in Ehtiopian highlands.
In breeding season 2022 Nurme visited several nests in a fairly large territory. In one of such Nurme was captured by the trail camera together with a ringed female (V702) from Lithuania (ringed in 2020). Autumn migration started at the end of July. Nurme migrated up to the southern part of Belarus together with another monitored black stork from Pärnu County (Timmu). In Africa, the connection with Nurme was lost, as is common there.

Already in 1980, a variety of objects collected in the villages of our country were transported to the designated place near Bobruisk. The Ethnographic Museum is located in the small village of Glusha, 20 km from Bobruisk, on the way to the Old Roads.
Much has already been done: several wooden houses, a church, a windmill, a bathhouse, craft workshops, the richest exposition material, folk groups ... https://www.bobruin.by/bobrujsk/stati/c ... ytym-nebom

there seem to be pine forests in that area (also in other photos around Glusha)

Nurme probably made some stops on the ground, but it is still an impressive distance to pass in one day.

Before heading to his journey, Nurme emtied 2 fish baskets- so enough fuel for this long trip

[marika.solo]

I hope all chicks in the vicinity are already big and strong enough

distance:
- most probably it is not one day migration path - Mare: 23.05.2022 - 603,7 km (24h)
- Urmas: "I did not write down the longest travel per day, but think it was less as for Mare now you wrote."
