- Storks, especially females, map food sources in the surrounding area after arrival - and the number of eggs depends on this (however, the situation can change dramatically over time).
- There are opinions that based on this assessment, storks may not nest, skip the season and may not return to the nest (or only irregularly - males tend to control their territory and therefore the nest).
(Dr. Strazds)
If there is indeed a drought in the area, then this scenario is very likely. Time will tell.
Late breeding:
opininon of prof. Piotr Zieliński:
In our conditions, the latest date of laying the first egg in the brood ending with the departure of the chicks is May 9. (2021 to the late brood in Estonia, Jogeva Country - nest of Jan and Janika)
