ESTONIA Pärnu county (Kergu + Kerli)

[marika.solo]

at 12.30.13 he landed on the branch and is calling


stork stepped on the next branch and jumps around on the upper branches


12.39.32 he is flying from there and is visible on the right in the branches and there he again sings

[marika.solo]

Kerli followed him (?) or Kergu is on the way home?



Kergu lands

[marika.solo]

the strange is arriving to the nest


there he is


and both are defending the nest (to me it seems Kerli is more excited - because she is without experiences with this kind of situation? or because hormones? or it is her personality? or ... ?)

[marika.solo]

Kerli covers her eggs
Kergu: Dear are you all right?


Kerli seems to be observing the strange male
Kergu: I will protect you!


12.47.22 Kerli up, and both are defending the nest (and the eggs) loudly calling

[marika.solo]

Does Kerli want to cover the eggs or is it the usual movement of material when they defend the nest,




I am really a very big lady

12.52.05 the branch in the upper left was swaying - did the visitor fly away? or is it just on a different branch?



he left?


no still here

[marika.solo]

and the "visitor" left the nest (bad pic )



is he really far away?


PS (Kergu) - stress ended

[marika.solo]

- is the stork still around here somewhere?


Kergu decided to check his territory (very likely)

[marika.solo]

who is coming? Kergu or the "visitor" is back?


Kergu is (safely) back

[marika.solo]

Will this night bring a third egg?
