Katrin is still in the same area, on Lacul Tălăbasca, between Hanu Conachi and Tudor Vladimirescu, Romania. :D
She obviously loves it there! Most probably, she is building up a lot of reserves for the continuation of her journey. :thumbs:

Little Katrin, isn't it time to move on?

Edit:
In birdmap, lake Tălăbasca is classified as a wetland.

Little Katrin flew southwest today. :roll:

Katrin, are you planning to visit little Udu? :shock:

She crossed the Sea of Marmara near the Dardanelles Strait in about 20 minutes (top-speed 83 km/h) and is currently overlooking the Aegean Sea near Assos, Çanakkale Province,Turkey.
Across the sea (the Mytilini Strait) is the island of Lesvos.

Assos, also known as Behramkale or for short Behram, is a small historically rich town in the Ayvacık district of the Çanakkale Province, Turkey. During Pliny the Elder's time (1st century CE), the city also bore the name Apollonia.
Though the town is officially named Behramkale, most people still call it by its ancient name of Assos. The town is on the southern side of Biga Peninsula, better known by its ancient name, Troad.
Assos is located on the coast of the Adramyttian Gulf (Turkish: Edremit Körfezi).
Much of the surrounding area is visible from the ancient Temple of Athena, built on top of a trachyte crag. The view from this temple on a clear day extends to nearby Lesbos in the south, Pergamum in the southeast, and Mount Ida in Phrygia in the east. To the north, the Tuzla River flows. ...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assos

Lesbos is a Greek island located in the northeastern Aegean Sea, often called Mytilene in Greece, after its capital. It has an area of 1633 km2 with 321 kilometres of coastline, making it the third largest island in Greece. It is separated from Turkey by the narrow Mytilini Strait...

After admiring the scenery and the ancient ruins, Katrin went fishing on a dam in the Tuzla river. 8-)

TRACKER MAP
KATRIN - OCTOBER 26th
https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid= ... sp=sharing

Total distance flown: 99.2 km
Battery level: 100%

Today, little Katrin flew to the island Lesbos, and is near Polichnitos and the Gulf of Kalloni ! :shock:

So Katrin is in Greece now! :rolleyes:

Lesbos lies in the far east of the Aegean sea, facing the Turkish coast (Gulf of Edremit) from the north and east; at the narrowest point, the strait is about 5.5 km wide. The shape of the island is roughly triangular, but it is deeply intruded by the gulf of Kalloni, with an entry on the southern coast, and the gulf of Gera, in the southeast.
The island is forested and mountainous with two large peaks, Mount Lepetymnos at 968 m and Mount Olympus at 967 m — not to be confused with Mount Olympus in Thessaly on the Greek mainland, ancient "home of the gods" and one of four so-named mountains in Greece— dominating its northern and central sections. The island's volcanic origin is manifested in several hot springs and the two gulfs.
Lesbos is verdant, aptly named Emerald Island, with a greater variety of flora than expected for the island's size. Eleven million olive trees cover 40% of the island together with other fruit trees. Forests of mediterranean pines, chestnut trees and some oaks occupy 20%, and the remainder is scrub, grassland or urban.
The island has a hot-summer Mediterranean climate. The mean annual temperature is 18 °C, and the mean annual rainfall is 750 mm. Its exceptional sunshine makes it one of the sunniest islands in the Aegean Sea. Snow and very low temperatures are rare.

Polichnitos is a little town and a former municipality on the island of Lesbos, North Aegean, Greece. Since the 2019 local government reform it is part of the municipality West Lesbos, of which it is a municipal unit. Population 4,234 (2001). The municipal unit is located in the central south coast of the island, adjacent to the south side of the Bay of Kalloni. It has a land area of 172.629 km2. Its municipal seat is in the town of Polichnítos. The next largest villages are Vrísa (617), Vasiliká (400), and Lisvóri (408).

Between 15:35 and 18:25 little Katrin was fishing in the Polichnitos salt pans.
