Uherák

Year 2025: Uherák was caught on 9.4.2025 in a field near Staré Nechanice as the first male lapwing to be equipped with a transmitter in this project. By 23.4., he was observed incubating at a different nest than where he was initially caught. So he had two nests with different females in the one field. 

During the season, he made at least three nesting attempts, with at least one confirmed as successful, he was seen rearing chicks.

From 18.6., Uherák moved to the area around Předměřice nad Labem, and on 22.6. continued toward Lhota pod Libčany, where he joined other tracked lapwings. On 21.10., Uherák began his migration and stayed in France from 7.11. to 17.11. On 19.11., he arrived in Spain, where he unfortunately died on 22.11.
