Black Stork Nest in Karula, 2021

[Bibibu]

Good evening everyone,

again so many beautiful reports and great shots from you.

Heloise the shot where Kaia does her business is extremely ingenious.

You do not believe how often I have now tried different words in the translation, so that it does not sound abnormal in the sentence before.

Bibibu

Nice to read you! Thanks
(You are not alone in these translation problems!)

I just learned from an Eagle Club/Kotkaklubi member that there is a problem with the server that needs to be restarted from time to time. A new server would solve these problems, but we don't have it yet and we need to be patient.

Thanks for the message!
There is nothing you can do about technical problems except replace them and wait patiently.

[Heloise]

You´re welcome! Yes, true! We have to be patient, there is nothing we can do.
Thank you for the last and very lovely picture of the Karl II - he seems very calm!

Hello Heloise,
Hello Swenja,
and at the same time a good night to you and everyone else.

yes I also have to reload all the time

22.16 Karl is lying quite relaxed in his nest and a beautiful evening song sounds from the forest.

Is this camera lagging behind so much, because here with Karl it's still light, I can still see him.....whereas with the other black storks it's already dark.

Just updated for the umpteenth time, now it is dark after all

Good night!
I will sleep and I will dream about the moments I saw today:
at 12:06, Kaia got up and allowed the stork to sit for a short time, but she is watching him:


12: 35 she loves the stork:

Good night!
