21:53 there is such an expression "to stretching a feets" - this is how it looks.

[Tatiana60]

22:26 no one asks to eat, it's very strange... they must have suffered a lot from the heat and are now enjoying the coolness.

Thank you @Tatiana60 and @Anne7 for the pictures and report. The heat this afternoon was bad for the chicks.

Hopefully it won't thunder so hard. Rain is good, but please no heavy thunderstorms.

Good morning!

Yes, the zoom ist good. Thanks, Jo!

Swenja, in Pärnu it has already began to rain. Let's hope that the rain moves in to Karula too.

good morning to all!

Storklets would like weather without rains.

[Swenja]

10:15 The wind freshens and some big raindrops fall.



10:45 Now it's really raining. Karl II wants to protect the chicks.

[Swenja]

10:52 It thunders. I hope the camera technology holds out.

[Swenja]

I believe that the camera is fogging up due to the rising steam.

Hello everyone

The long-awaited rain came!
This is the first time our storklets experience rain and get soaking wet.

The oldest chicks are 3 weeks old today. It is so good to see that they have barely been alone on the nest so far.








Swenja and Tatiana, many thanks for the beautiful pictures.

[Anne7]

.
Everyone got wet.

And everyone got a nice Saints Halo.




Is everyone OK?


The chicks start twittering. They ask for food.

[Anne7]

.
Karl II shakes his wings.


And so do his children.


I wonder if more wetness is on the way?

[Swenja]

12:27 Karl II flies away. The chicks are hungry.
