2024: In the 2024 breeding season, Sněhurka was caught at a nest in a field near Káranice railway station. This nesting attempt was unsuccessful. Since June, she has been roaming the fields near the villages of Káranice, Kosičky, Obědovice, and has been flying to Písek near Chlumec nad Cidlinou. Since July, she has frequently been spotted at the sandpit near Lhota pod Libčany, together with other tagged lapwings.

Sněhurka began her migration to her wintering grounds on October 21st. She crossed Germany near Nuremberg and continued into France. She stayed near Vitry-le-François in the Grand Est region from October 23rd until November 11th. After that, she flew directly to Spain without longer stops. There, she settled 130 km north of Seville, where she stayed until the end of the year.

 

2025: At the beginning of 2025, Sněhurka was in Spain, near the border of the autonomous communities of Extremadura and Andalusia, north of Córdoba.
