Spring movement by ucol 30 today.

 After spending the night at Darnrig Moss east pool ucol 30 took off on her spring migration to Denmark

We are unsure at this stage if the other collared bird (whit24) went as well but time will tell. It is more than likely that our remaining c60 birds have gone east as well today. 

We hope to have observers out in Denmark to give us an update when conditions are suitable for observations to take place.

Meanwhile a couple of screen grabs from the tracking data for you to see. 

You will see ucol 30 off Burntisland at 0900 and then fly over Dunbar out into the north sea in a south easterly direction before correcting its flight path at 1600hrs towards the north east heading west coast of Denmark. Last position was at 1900hrs today. It is fabulous to be able to share this information with our blog watchers and it shows the great benefits we have in being able to follow our GPS collared birds.
