Early morning at black stork nest

 

Black stork          Must-toonekurg         Ciconia nigra

Just as with the first egg this one was discovered in the nest early in the morning dusk.

The night was not as cold as when the first egg was laid but there were still some degrees of frost.

Thus female Kati laid  the eggs on April 12th and 14th.

This morning at six o’clock

 

White-tailed eagle         Merikotkas       Haliaeëtus albicilla

 

… and not for the first time during the last month. Still the same adult, ringed with the number  E301 and with a nice white tail.

In due time we will find out whom we have to do with.

The night was of course cold, in the nest forest there may have been at least a couple of degrees of frost but in the morning dusk the egg was really there.
