KATRIN morning update
Battery status: 41%
This morning, Katrin was still in the same area in Yayakent, Kınık district, İzmir Province, Turkey.
She went fishing in the Yayaköy Creek.
The weather in Yayakent for today.
No rain, (almost) no clouds. Good for Katrin, and probably good for the battery too.
The temperatures however are a little lower again. Especially the ‘real feel’ (temperatures felt) aren’t very comfortable anymore.

Katrin's location today at 08:29 (UTC+2), seen in Google Earth (view to the north)
Zoomed view.
Does anyone know what this pit or reservoir (with a sloping floor?) could be used for?
I do not see any irrigation canals near the pit.
There is a path to the nearby farmhouse(?), or is it perhaps a winery? It could be that grapes are grown on this hill.
Have a nice day!

Hello, Bigfan!
It is nice of you to come and say hello!
Thank you, Jo!
Little Katrin is back near the cattle farm (Delbıçakoğlu Tarım ve Hayvancılık), southeast of Bergama, İzmir Province, Turkey.
She is starting to get to know every brook and ditch in the wide area.
Katrin has been here before.
After searching for food in the ditch that flows into the Bakırçay river, she went to sleep just south of the cattle farm.
Her night location, in a tree not far from the farm.
(Under a cute little cloud )
Sleep well, little Katrin.
Sleep well, everyone.

Liz, Hellem
Thank you, Jo
Little Katrin is still in the same area, southeast of Bergama, İzmir Province, Turkey.
She went to sleep in the same tree as yesterday, just south of the cattle farm.

Good morning
KATRIN morning update
Morning route: 5.00 km
Battery: 38%
This morning Katrin flew from her night area near the cattle farm first to the Kocadere and then to the ditch were she has been looking for food yesterday. She is still in the same area, southeast of Bergama, İzmir Province, Turkey.
Poor Katrin will have an awful lot of rain today, and thunderstorms in the afternoon!
28 mm of rain equals 28 liters, almost 3 full buckets of water per square metre.
I expect the battery level to drop even more today.

Hello, Juta!
I'll give it a try, too.
Maybe I'll be more lucky.
Edit: Yes, I was more lucky!

Tonight Katrin went to sleep on the wooded hill south of the Bakırçay River. Presumably to take shelter?
Good night, everyone

Have a nice day Anne, Juta , Jo, Hellem... and a big thank you to everyone for your efforts and our joy in watching our feathered friends .. We do not know why little Katrin does not fly further in the sun .. I would just like to ask- can she survive in this area at all?
