Four to two!
Day without wind is unheard of here. Today waking up wasn't easy after yesterday's catching with a flashlight. Although early morning was really windy, we decided to open few nets. In the begining we opened seven of them, but during first rounds we saw that some didn't look good in such a strong wind and closed two. We were left with five open nets until the end of today's catching. But even that brought us four new birds, and two recaptured ones! Today we also had to say goodbye to Ole, who left us so quickly. Thank You for the great dinner and all the talks once again, Ole! But we had more guests: we were visited by Gert who joined us for a coffee and by Jürgen who brought us some sweets! Thank You one more time! All the people that we came across during our stay in Gedser confirm that one of the best and most valuable experiences is meeting so nice and kind people.
