ALT ‘Hera’ left South Africa on 30 March and arrived in Uzbekistan on 15 May – completing a journey of about 10,500km in six weeks (including a seven-day stopover in Somalia to rest and recuperate midway). The tracking record for ‘Royal Wasi’, another European Roller tagged in Limpopo, disappeared in Somalia. (Graphic: Jessica Wilmot / Birdlife South Africa)
