Hello everyone

HATCHING: 1st and 2nd chick - 5.5 , 3rd chick - 6/7.5, 4st chick - 9.5
- chicks are today: 85/85 days old
- the 4st chick is not more visible on the nest from 22.05 (maybe brood reduction - storklet enough much lagged behind in growth) and the 3rd chick perished in the night 11./12.06 36 days old - unknown reason

MAIDEN FLIGHT: 1st chick - 09.07, 2nd chick - 10.07
(storklets 2-4 weeks after being able to fly they will go to the nest at night or rest at the nest)

LEAVING THE NEST both chicks left the nest on 28.07 at 11.45 (after feeding at 11.43) 84 days old (viewtopic.php?p=38764#p38764)

EVENTS:
- 09.37 adult stork is on the nest and later also the female arrived (it seems both are defending the nest)
