continuation - previous post viewtopic.php?p=792#p792 (as of 31.12.2021)
Eedi started this autumn migration on 18.08.2021. He continued to migrate south on 10.09 after a few stops on stop-over sites in Ukraine (ponds). The Sea of Marmara he crossed on 13.09, the Gulf of İskenderun on 18.09 and on 20.09 Eedi send data already from Saudi Arabia.
Kingdom of Saudi Arabia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saudi_Arabia
Asir Province https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/%27Asir_Province
Bisha Governote https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bisha - "the Bisha Valley (the longest valley in the Arabian Peninsula)"
we have the opportunity to follow his migration since 2015 (September)
Even now (as every year), Eedi stopped at one of the dams before arriving at the winter quarters. He reached his main wintering area most probably on 06.10 (birdmap update after 17 days - newest data 23.10).
Eedi is male Black Stork (white ring with black code 712W on left leg). His foraging sites and breeding site are situated in southern Estonia, close to Latvian border, in Karula National Park.

EEDI "visited" the King Fahad (Bisha) Dam to the north; he flew away from "his" favourite river area maybe on 20.12. and spent the night there 3 times (second time this season - first time in Nov. the southern area). Than he flew back to "his" river and on 26.12 continued to the SE to the (big) Tarj dam and the river there.

Eedi flew back to the river and continued to the south-east - to the (big) Tarj dam and to the south there
