Thank you so much
I just watched what scared them so much

I hope they're okay. There were loud cracking sounds.

April 02
Hello everyone

- the nest remained empty for the night
- 6.38 first arrived the male (singing loudly for a while) and is moving the nest material
- 6.44 again loudly singing and stork settled down (6.44 a stork flew in front of the nest - did the female fail to land?)
- 6.46 female arrived, greetings

- long preening
- 6.59 failed mating (female is not cooperating), 7.11 she is again not ready for mating (but she is nibbling his repeatedly)

....

ufff. Everything's fine with them

06:38:19 - arrival of the male


06:46:14 - arrival of the female


female in front, male in back:

[marika.solo]

they are preening each other again and again

[marika.solo]

nice pair


12.20.20 it seems something disturbed them for a very short while - both are whistling, one of them (male?) also pooped



preening take place again and some nest reparation

[marika.solo]

- I didn't see any mating - the female was avoiding, but she was preening, nibbling him often
- they flew away after noon and and they didn't return to the nest (I didn't see them on the rewind)
