maybe it rained in the areas where they go hunting - they don't fly in the rain (long rain makes their wings heavy) and it's difficult to hunt in muddy water after the rain (and possibly a higher water level)

good job again! thank you Adriána :D

the situation for foraging is not good at the moment. Karl flew more than 100 km today to find food, more or less successfully. I hope tomorrow the fish baskets will be filled again, I know it's not the best solution but maybe one to prevent a catastrophe
