incubating in the rain

as if she were defending the nest (as if she were bristling - ruffled feathers)

the second stork is usually nearby, even if it is out of the camera's view

Hello everyone

- there is still discussion if 3 or 4 eggs - time will tell
- maybe it's just the white thing that's confusing me from the beginning (I was also sceptical about the 3 eggs at the beginning because of that: https://www.ciconianigra.sk/viewtopic.p ... 334#p43334)

​​Tannya, you are right!Thank you so much! I will do a Video. I see four eggs too
9:45 AM liznm
​​I think again, that are only three eggs

[marika.solo]

to me it is most probably our female

[marika.solo]

it seems there is again someone unwanted

[marika.solo]

I'm leaning towards 4 eggs already. Time will tell what the situation really is here.


female is still there on the parent branch (you can see her wing)

- the wind gust is some time very hard
- the nest disappears from the camera's view (the branch with the camera is swaying a lot)
