Hi all
You're all welcome! I love those birds so you can ask any thing. Unfortunately I don't have much time to come here but I try to, at least, inform you on the most important things

Garina we'll keep an eye out but the chances seem slim the Black Stork will nest here as there are so many nests already. Or not ?

Hi
The BS will nest in this area. Maybe even 2 couples.
Their nest last year was under what I called "nest 2" so we cannot see it, and I think that maybe that nest is occupied by GV also :unsure:
The cam is now closer in order to find out, as we can see the birds flying in and out.
But even if we don't see the nest, we will see them several times as they stop many times in the several platforms we can see

No. I'ven't been there yet. We know that they are there but their nest from last year is also taken by GV :rant:

Hi all :wave:
A new :bounce: on the griffon vultures cam. This nest is difficult to see but on the weekend we expect that there will be another chick on the nest closer to the cam
