At my old Estonian friend "Oss" unfortunately the transmitter works no longer since Summer 2011 in Estonia.
I'm not able to observe him. Not a good sign. I knew his habits in Israel and I had "Oss" found!

A big "fish" while my ring readings in Israel 2011! - The origin from ad. BS "CC57" (red plastic on right tibia - difficult to find) is from Belgium! The BS was ringed as nestling by Gerard Gadoul in Belgium on 15.06.2004. In May 2006 the BS was observed still in France! INCREDIBLE!!
Special thanks to Frederic Chapalain for the fast answer with ringing data!
Gesher, Jordan Valley - 17.10.2011 - C. Rohde.
E.g. at the 23. September roost a flock of 1300 Black Storks in the Valleys - in total 15 colour-ringed BS and one metal ringed.

Inside the fish pond near Newe Ur - on 27th September 1290 BS!!
14:00 pm 630 Ind, 15:40 pm 850 Ind. and 16:40 pm 1290 BS (incl. 330 1.cy - a very good result!) - © C. Rohde.
A really big problem - the strung nets over the fish ponds!! Either drowning or strangulation the BS there. More later. I would like elaborate a paper.
Meanwhile, I've found in total so 18 BS. Of these I could only five BS rescue alive - in two cases like partisan work - I've cut the nets swimming with knives...
