Post by juta »

Through this camera we will follow Charadriiformes migration during next 3 weeks.
It is installed on Haversi shore in Riguldi village, Western Estonia.

A picture made this morning.
A juvenile Starling foraging in the seaweed, and a juvenile White wagtail sitting on top of the camera.

The belly of the young Starling already turned into the winter plumage with 'black' feathers with white tops.

In the night a lighthouse can be seen on the right.
Two long flashes every 18 seconds. Probably Osmussaare Lighthouse.

Hagnat, if I located Noarootsi Shore right, then light should be from Vormsi Island

I don't know, Juta. The signature of Osmussaare Lighthouse (Fl(2) W 18s) fits my measurements and the signatures are supposed to be unique. All the Vormsi lights are very different.
https://www.unc.edu/~rowlett/lighthouse/est1.htm

The coast of Noarootsi vald is roughly between Haapsalu and Spithami (and includes Osmussaare).
The wide-angle camera is facing ~west and the visible lighthouse roughly to the North-West. I am not sure of land at the horizon (~4.7 Km).
Assuming it is Osmussaare lighthouse, being 35 m. high, the cam can't hardly be further South than Riguldi.
Of course there is no need to know the precise location of the cam.

Picture with a red dot on the location of the light (but much bigger).
