Hello all :hi:

UDU

▶︎ TRACKER MAP
UDU_29.09 — 05.10
https://www.google.com/maps/d/edit?mid= ... sp=sharing

Shown distance: 34.2 km
Battery status: 0%

Udu's data update shows unfortunatly only one new location point since 29.09.
But it is much better than no news at all!

Little Udu moved a little eastwards. S/he spent last night in a little forest on the banks of the river Po, near the village San Nicolò Po.
The village of San Nicolò Po belongs to the municipality of Bagnolo San Vito, in the province of Mantova, region Lombardia. It has about 279 residents. San Nicolò Po is situated northwest of Le Crociare, and northeast of Gonfo III.

Udu is (or was) just across the river, approximately here (June 2019)

Waiting for Kaia's data - but it doesn't look optimistic. Let's wait for the correct time. a few more minutes -

No luck - there is no data from Kaia. Next due tomorrow.

Wow. Our wonderful Karl II is on a roll. It seems he was able to recharge during his stopover at the Danube. :headroll:

Yes, smart KarlII used that stopover at Danube instead of his usual region near Kherson. And he managed to cross Sea of Marmara in one day!

Jo, I think we first saw this kind of map when we were about to make our first tracker maps. I believe Urmas sent us such a picture. I don't remember which bird it was about then. Was it little Maru perhaps? How many years ago was that? Already four? :D

We already know our Karl II as very smart, but he is also unbelievably strong,
such a distance at once and flew over the sea of Marmara even at the furthest point ! :headroll:

Thank you all for the tracker maps and great pictures :2thumbsup:

06. October

Good morning to all

Karl II you are an amazing bird... well done.
It's also possible without schnapps and wine....(joking aside)...I'm glad that Karl II mastered the Ukraine!

Anne....great pictures of Karl's II flight!

Now we hope to get data from Kaia quickly and hopefully Uncle Eedi's transmitter will get in touch....at least once.

Once again there is no data from Kaia.
It is always worth waiting a few extra minutes - I will check again in 10 minutes.
Still no data.

It looks like Kaia now flies through some zone without GPS as KarlII a month ago.
