Iks is so cute!
S/he made such a good progress in the last days that s/he has been able to catch up with the older siblings.

Many many thanks to Urmas and friends for all the work you have done and for trapping Kaia and given her a transmitter.

Wonderful news.

But the very best of all is that thanks your work all chicks have become strong black storks

It was interruption in YT, but Karl fed all chicks in 7:44. Difficult to see what brought, sun shining directly into lens.
Karl did not visit fish basket 1, there should be some fish still in. Only animal caught by trail cam near basket has been Roe Deer, since last providing of fish.
From basket 2 Karl did not bring all fish there to the nest. Maybe he needed for himself, but also herons were seen there.

Is this the first time both parents and chicks from the same nest can be tracked?

This is going to be very interesting. Good move by Urmas to tag Kaia as well, and none too soon as she started migrating straight away.

[Liz01]

11:02 Food delivery by Karl! It looks like fish and frogs

[Liz01]

11:29 Storklets are begging and looking to the left. A strange black stork?
