Unfortunately today i did not have the time to watch.
Many thanks to everybody here for the beautiful pictures, reports and nice comments
This Black Stork male is simply staggeringly impressive !
And his arrivals are as spectacular as his breathtaking descents,
powerful and yet graceful.
Looking forward to the 3rd egg tomorrow

5:45 Kati is laying in the nest, the Male is preening her
She stands up and male is clacking with his beak, but
5:47 Kati is stretching very nice
5:48 second mating attempt
5:48 Male is poking in the nest bowl. I think there is a PS on his tail featers... a big PS
5:49 He settles on the eggs
5:53 he is still on the eggs, Kati is preening herself
It was a nice morning ritual. I will make a video as soon as I have time.

Good morning
It's heart-warming to see the sedulous Papa endlessly aerating the moss around the three eggs.

Good day and many thanks too all for cute pictures, videos and comments
I was thinking when it would be right time to choose a name for our male stork? He is really charming and delightful and has proved that many times :) Dont want to sound insensitive, because we all feel bitter in our hearts about dear Karl and nothing can change that. But thats just a thought, also people in Youtube chat were talking about it so i brought up this subject. How do you all feel about it?
