Black Stork Nest 2, Jan and Janika, 2021

[Solo]

Jan regurgitated 1 big fish (07:38:19), probably №1 grabbed it


07:38:24


07:38:28 Jan flew out, №1 (to the left) and № 2 (to the right) still are fighting? eating? (07:38:29)

[Solo]

1 very little fish (or piece for the big fish?) for № 2 (07:38:32)


maybe it was one soft fish and all got some pieces (07:39:05)


they finished at 07:40:42

[Summi]

Good morning everyone

Solo thank you for the report of Jan's visit with a wreath of straw around his neck. One fish was a bonus of this event.

09:29:48 Jan is here
- feeding: 3 fishes, №1 - 1 fish, № 2 - 0, №3 - 2 fishes
correction: the first very little fish for №3, the second a little bigger for №1, the third middle sized for №3 (№1 tore off 2 small pieces of №3's fish
09:30:45 Jan out

09:29:48 Jan arrived


the first/correction - the second fish for №1 (09:30:31)

[Solo]

09:30:35 the second fish grabbed №3, but ...


the next tug of war (09:30:40a)


09:30:40 №3 has almost the whole fish; №1 tore off another small piece of №3's fish once more

Summi,
you're welcome

Good day Solo, Summi

12.13 Chicks start chirping- someone is coming.
12.14 Jan flies in. Chicks are very anxious and hungry.
What ever Jan regurgitates, it is taken straight from his bill by No 1. There may be something else too, but I am not sure if No2 and No3 got anything this time
12.15 Jan out.

Hi Solo, Summi, Birdfriend, Liz and everyone,
edit: madlaa, Hellem,

12:08:20 a beautiful orange butterfly visited, the storklets this time didn't notice, they were busy with preening


maybe a silver-washed fritillary Argynnis paphia (male?)

16:25 Feeding by Jan, No2 or No1 swallowed a big fish

[Birdfriend]

16:25 Feeding by Jan, No 2 swallowed a big fish

Good day! Thanky you, Solo, balistar, Summi, Hellem, Liz

16:24:52 Jan lands


16:25 It takes longer til Jan was able to regurgitating the big fish.


I guess that chick in front got it. That time Nr.2

[Summi]

At last no 2 was the winner, good for him!

No2

[Hellem]

Birdfriend , on your picture (the 2nd) it seems to me now that the smart No 1 got the fish

No 1 is in front of the tree (opposite to "us")
No 2 is quite ahead (to the left) with the very big crop
