Hello again to all those glued to Amur Watch ! The Amur Falcons are rewriting the limits of endurance. From the forests of Manipur, three satellite-tagged travellers Apapang, Alang and Ahu have taken the world by storm. Here is the latest update from their epic journey. You will notice Apapang and Alang have crossed into Kenya... while Ahu continues to stay at the northern tip of Somalia. They are likely to stopover at Tsavo National Park in Kenya Apapang (Orange tag) The hero of the season. 6,100 km in 6 days 8 hours nonstop. A single unbroken arc across continents. Alang (Yellow tag) The youngest with incredible grit. 5,600 km in 6 days 14 hours, including a night halt in Telangana and a 3-hour breather in Maharashtra before powering towards the Arabian Sea. Ahu (Red tag) steady and strong. 5,100 km in 5 days 14 hours, with a night pause in western Bangladesh before joining the great transoceanic push. (Her distance is lower because she took a more northerly and relatively shorter route to Somalia.) Together, they embody the raw beauty of migration, precision, instinct, wind, stamina, and courage. What a season ! What a journey ! As told by @SureshWII @wii_india to @supriyasahuias #AmurFalconMigration
