Thank you, Bea :thumbs:

Wow, Waba has flown about 300 km further northwest
It looks like s/he might be heading to Serbia, flying along the southern slopes of the Balkan Mountains.

Bon voyage, Waba!

Incredible - our amazing Waba is now in ROMANIA! S/he is not far away of the town Targu Jiu. Wikipdia says:
Târgu Jiu [ˈtɨrgu ˈʒiu] (until 1992 Tîrgu Jiu,[3] historically also Tergu Jiu, Targulu Jiuliu, Tirgushu[4]; German Turgukukuli[5]) is a city in the historical region of Lesser Wallachia in Romania. It is the capital of the Gorj district on the Jiu (Schil) river in the foothills of the Southern Carpathians and has around 80,000 inhabitants. The place was first mentioned in 1406 and has had city rights since 1597.

Waba decided to return to the river Jiu which looks like a good foraging place.
The Jiu (pronunciation German Schil or Schiel; Hungarian Zsil; Latin Rabon) is a left tributary of the Danube in southern Romania.

The river originates south of the small town of Aninoasa from the Jiul de Vest (Western Schil) and the Jiul de Est (Eastern Schil). The Jiul de Vest rises between the Retezat and Vâlcan Mountains, the Jiul de Est on the border between the Parâng and Şureanu Mountains. After the union, it flows mainly southwards through the Getic Plateau or Hunedoara, Gorj and Dolj counties before flowing into the Danube in the Wallachian Plain. The river has a length (according to various sources) of 339 kilometers[1] or 348 kilometers[2] and a catchment area of 10,080 km²[1] or 10,469 km²[2] and (short of its confluence with the Danube) a water channel of 94 m³/s.

Hi everyone :hi:,

having a tough time right now because of terrible health-related news in my family, but it makes me smile to see Waba and Bonus exploring the world and thriving.

Looking forward to this year's chicks. May they grow up safely. :nod:
