Black Stork Nest in Karula - 2016

[yarko]

Good morning/evening - what a great news to wake up to! A brand new storklet!!
Congratulations to everyone - storks and humans!!


17:50
Karl standing up, rolling the eggs,
chick very lively, even played with some small branches -
- and the other egg is doing something funny too.

17:49 - Kati is preening, the storklet is searching in the nest material, and the egg is talking.

Something was moving in the hole, it seemed like a piece disappeared from it, and it got bigger.


Edit: is it Karl in the nest?
Edit2: It's Kati, isn't it?

Thank you so much for all your pictures and videos of the new chick. I missed the live hatching but thanks to all of you I can watch it.

Nice to see the chick looking so lively. The second chick should be out soon!

Wow, I actually saw the second chick hatch!!! That has not happened for a long time for me.

Thank you Liz for your video.

Can someone tell me please....is that a cuckoo I can here in the background? He/she sounds like one.. what a lovely call/song.

What a happy day - a storklet in the morning and another one in the evening. So they are twins

Many thanks for your pictures and reports. This is the first time I have been able to visit here. today.
Isn't it marvellous that this very young chick, not yet one day old, knows how to pick up a fish and eat it. Thinking of the WTE young at that age, such a difference between species.

I have taken a lot of pictures of the cuties. Difficult to decide, which I post not.
Here Karl rolled the eggs; the first born he has also rolled a little bit, together with the eggs.
