In West-Estonia we had good migration during last weekend:
Southern part of Matsalu Bay (Karuse and Virtsu):
16.09 1859 cranes from N
17.09 1842 cranes from N and the same day in northern part of Matsalu Bay
(Risti) - 400 cranes from N.
Around the Haapsalu Bay (north from Matsalu Bay) there are some 4000 cranes
feeding on the fields at the moment.
Best regards,
