What have they been doing since then?<\/p>\n<p> Sara was released in Basilicata in August, and <a

released in Calabria, hopped into Malta, where it was guarded by the police in his overnight stay, then flew off to Libya, and eventually reached the border area between Mali and Niger, where it has been wintering (see map).<\/p>\n<p> Unfortunately 3 birds drowned in the Mediterranea sea &#8211; data coming from the Balkans also suggest that about 70% of all tagged nestlings ended up drowning in
