Black Stork Nests in Europe

[baska]

Good afternoon, everybody!

Hello Michi! That is really funny, the way this storklet is sitting on the rim of the nest.

Fooooood!

"What are you looking so silly???
I remember very well, that once you wanted to see my healthy eyes!"

Baska, marvelous pictures you have gotten.

[baska]

Hello

Does anybody know why the cam in Estonia is working again?
Have there been storks???

[Michi]

20:35 All three at nest for the night.


Baska, as I've seen, you have already an answer to your question in the Looduskalender Black Stork topic.

Aaaah, might be an eel, or what do you think?

... but without head and fins?

Hello Michi!

[Michi]

Hello Baska,
just now I've seen the unknown animal.
I also looked twice as I opened the gemenc-website.

As your pictures are not to see, I add another one.

Yes, I think, it could be an eel. But I'm not an expert in eels.
I wonder, if the storklets will eat it later. Isn't it too big to swallow it whole?

[baska]

Hello Michi
In the meantime I asked somebody who should know it because he is fisherman.
Yes, it is an eel.

But it is looking so disgusting! And so huge.
I can imagine, that the storklets will wait until the eel begins to rot.
Then it will be easier to cut it up.

Since more than two weeks I haven’t seen our young Black Storks. Obviously they are preparing themselves for the long way to the south. Or they are already gone …

Have a long and happy life, dear Storks, and always wind under your wings! It was so nice to watch your growing.
Please take care of you and come back safe and sound, when it’s time!

sorry, a bit late.
My last pic's which I get from the family. Was on July,30. a Feeding at 7:45am.






Would like to join your nice words, Michi.
Take care dear family...
Hope to a reunion...

[Michi]

Hello Black Swan,
thank you for the pictures! It's nice, to see our Storks one more time.

Hopefully next year again here.

Wow! The first Black Stork arrived! That's wonderful!

Thank you for the information and the picture, Macko!

Hello everybody !
Hello George and Michi ! Glad to see you !

I wish all of the Looduskalender team and readers a happy new year !!! (we still have got enough days left...)
And a good season to all storks !



It is really a pity that they haven't changed anything and the cam still doesn't work properly.

I discovered another very nice Black Stork cam in Poland, not far from Kraków in Doly
Live, with sound, where you can change to full screen.

I'm quite sure, I will prefer to look here.

But the most I will be interested in, that is the Black Stork nest in Estonia !
And I hope very much, that Tiina will have a better season than last year !!!

[Black swan]

Hello

Glad to see you all here this year...and so happy Tobias back at nest



We are spoiled by the many wonderful cameras.
But this here at least provides a perfectly clear picture and beautiful close-ups.
(if you're lucky and just get a picture )

Hope we will see a great season for the storks.

Hello I'm so impatient waiting for camera of Tina nest to start working.
Is there any information when it will be put on line?
