6:15:43 one flew away
6:16:08 Storklet jumps to another branch
6:17:30 it flies away

I think they are now exploring the surrounding area again. I am glad that they are now over 80 days old and are still being cared for.
And I am curious how long the parents will still come

6:47 breaking branches under the nest tree. for me is sounds like an animal

They will be back in one- two hours :laugh:

crash landing on the left

EDIT: Sibling flies on the right over a branch to the left - then crash sound . so OXF4 must be on the left
It could be she landed there. But she did not come down. :puzzled:
