As always.

Another feeding
18:05:23 Look at these 1-day old chicks!


18:06:14 This time, the chick in the middle is really in a bad position.


18:06:21 It realised that it was hopeless to try to turn around, and decided to sleep.

No problem, out right away.

Again, Kati seems to be annoyed by something under her belly.
She gets up several times. I think something is itching or biting

19:22:18 She preens her chicks rather nervously.
Is she looking for parasites?


19:22:44


19:23:26

19:43 Karl II comes home

19:46:24 Feeding. One chick didn't participate. Not hungry?

are that all lampreys ? or leechs, too ?

Can you see it better ?
What do you think ?

I'm sorry, visit, I do not see it better.
But I think I saw both.

19:50 Karl II is rolling 1 egg and 3 chicks.

The poor chick is upside down. Its head is under the egg.

20:06 Another rough preening-session.


20:24 Again.

20:32 Again

20:44:58 Karl II, please!


20:46:02 Is the hole in the egg bigger?


21:14 Again

21:37 Again. Egg #4 didn't hatch, so far.

Good night, everyone

21:53 Karl II is preening the storklets again
21:55 He rolled the egg and sat down

22:04 He is preening again
22:06 He covered the storklets and the egg

Good evening

Thank you very much for the nice pictures, videos, comments.
I think we will always recognize Karl II well. He never forgets his hoof swing.
just great



Good night

4:30
Karl keeps getting bumped from underneath - it makes his whole body jump. I guess the little guys might be hungry or something. He gets up, rolls the remaining egg, preens his young vigorously, then lays back down.

18. May

good Morning


04:27
Karl II works (nibbles, cleans the little ones)


05:15
Gets up again (he tries to choke, nothing comes out)

Then something comes out (little)
A little one looks the wrong way. I do not know what you and how much you ate. Karl took something back in his beak

06:31
Kati comes with some grass, Karl II gets up and flies away
Kati feeds, first a fish came out and then black mass (?)
The first two ate something the third had a bad position

06:36
she covers them again

Karl II wears moss and grass again

07:42
feed
the third has problems with something too big fish
I think they all ate something

08:16
Feeding .... all have something taken

I can see the broken egg as Karl is newly arrived and poking around!

9:28 The 4th chick is out of its shell!

9:30 the parent (I can never tell which is which) moves the shell to the side of the nest.
