Forecast for February 01, 2025: We welcome February with unusually high temperatures

[marika.solo]

whole day 31.01.2025

Bulgaria: Belozem - a village in Rakovski Municipality of Plovdiv Province

Krum was on his way from the night roost to the Azmaka River early in the morning at 5.50. He was there from 6.40 to 8.00. Then he moved to another favourite place nearby in the NE direction (irrigation canal - there are rice fields). From there he went around noon "on a trip" to Chalakovi (he used the warm weather to circle over the country) and immediately back to the fields between Srebra and Azmaka (departure 11.11, arrival 12.30). He flew to the usual nearby place by the Maritsa River for the night.

Krum bol na ceste z nocoviska k riečke Azmaka už skoro ráno o 5:50. Bol tam od 6:40 do 8:00. Potom sa presunul len neďaleko na ďalšie obľúbené miesto v smere SV (zavlažovací kanál - sú tam ryžové polia). Odtiaľ sa vybral okolo obeda „na výlet“ do Chalakovi (teplé počasie využil na krúženie nad krajinou) a hneď späť na polia medzi Srebrou a Azmakou (odlet 11:11, prílet 12:30). Na noc odletel na obvyklé neďaleké miesto pri rieke Maritsa.

again nice surprise - opäť milé prekvapenie

- Krum is enjoying the nice war weather today again and is exploring new places (tomorrow morning, when the localisations/lines are only one day away, it will be interesting to watch Krum's circling)

- Krum si užíva dnešné pekné teplé počasie a objavuje nové miesta (zajtra ráno, keď budú lokalizácie/línie len za jeden deň, bude zaujímavé sledovať Krumovo krúženie)
