In 2018–2019 on the coast of Khanka Lake, 20 chicks of Great Egret and seven chicks of Oriental Stork were tagged with GPS-GSM trackers. Nine Great Egret, having left the colony, headed north (from 50 to 375 km), to China, where they spent from 68 to 80 days before the start of their fall migration. Six chicks of the Oriental Stork, having left the nesting area, moved in a northwest direction to the valley of the Amur River in the Jewish Autonomous Region.
The birds fed there until the beginning of their fall migration. According to the data obtained, the chicks of the Great Egret and the Oriental Stork have a directed juvenile migration to the north. Birds adhere to ecological corridors, but movements are possibly due to the historical stages of species dispersal on the coast of Khanka Lake.
