18-10-2005 14:54 | Jan Velinger

In today's One on One Jan's guest is ornithologist Lubomir Peske, who has been involved at every stage of the Odyssey projects - a series of tracking expeditions supported strongly by Czech Radio and greeted enthusiastically by listeners - that uses satellite to monitor the lives of black storks. These days projects include New Odyssey, tracking specimens travelling south from Mongolia to winter. But in this interview we discuss the project's fist inception, African Odyssey, which tracked birds flying from the Czech Republic to countries in Africa. That was the first time anyone has attempted to track black storks by satellite for a longer period of time.
