Yes, that´s what I saw too. I thought I heard him/her afterwards, but now I´m not sure
11:32 - Now I hear the knocking sound again. I think I was wrong before, it must be another bird nearby, knocking in a tree, and not a stork - sorry.

Tiit's eye...I did this picture in 2013...


I know that Urmas makes differens of storks by eyes and beaks.

Tiina and Tauno - I like the name of the new mate!
I have read "Tauno" means "peaceful"...

Love!

How many eggs can a femalе stork lay for one season? Donna got six in general and can it be seven?

I try to compare the pics from last year and now. It's really difficult if you don't have pictures with the same light, the same postition and the same perspective. For me, it still could be Tiit. But I guess it's almost impossible to find out.
Maybe it's not really important, nature does it's best to keep everything going on, and that's what happens here at the moment. It's wonderful to see that
