Urmasov's colleague sent Bonus with the transmitter up.


Urmas measured the lengths of wings and beaks to the last chick


and gave him a ring - 718X

[Adria]

He put it in a bag and weighed it


Urmas measured the beaks and writes them down and takes pictures on his mobile phone.




he was still communicating with his colleague

[Adria]

Urmas cleans and treats their beaks


The last chick is already back in the nest


Someone peeks out from under the jacket

[Adria]

uncovered the chicks


Urmas was packing his things


and he leaves
