I don't know if it's offtopic or not, but just an interesting fact that yesterday, 07.10.21, a Greater Spotted Eagle named Tur also arrived to the same little forest as Katrin.
Tur is also viewable from the birdmap: http://birdmap.5dvision.ee/EN/2021/autu ... =0&speed=1

This is interesting to know. Although the world is a big place, birds meet in least expected places
Then I hope that Katrin is safe in there too. And finding a lot to eat

Katrin did a nice circle around the area, visiting all the places she is connected to in the past days. Let's say she "wrapped up" her visit


Is she ready to move on? Is she saying good bye to the area? We will see soon I hope!
