...też myślę, że od widocznego ranka jest Natalio, starałam się dokładnie przejrzeć nagranie, trzeba będzie ocenić po przylocie drugiego osobnika... kiedy się zmieniły
Zastanawia mnie też kupa Zici: 19.07.46 - mało, 21.01.50 - obfita, a w międzyczasie nie żerowała... (tą czynność mam nagraną na ostatnim filmiku)
Może to my popełniłyśmy błąd w obserwacji... ciężko bez "piórka" Natalio...

[marika.solo]

translation:
..I also think that it's been Natalio since the visible morning, I tried to look through the recording carefully, I'll have to assess it after the second individual arrives... when did they change
I'm also wondering about Zica's poop: 19.07.46 - little, 21.01.50 - copious, and in the meantime she didn't feed... (I have this activity recorded on the last video)
Maybe we made a mistake in the observation... it's hard without the "feather" Natalio...

Maria, thank you - now Vida confirmed this our opinion too:

22:49:02 Yesterday, April 3rd, Natalio returned to the nest // 00:18:44 the stork that was lying down gets up / 00:19:20 the same one lies down again / 00:20:38 the one that was standing leaves.
​​I can see this thanks to a program called Enhacer, but you can all hear the sounds.
​​07:40:51 I think the one who wakes up in the nest is Natalio, therefore the one who left at night is supposedly Zica, but until she returns we can't be sure.

btw. in my opinion they are resting very close - some time I have impression they only jump to the nest or fly very shortly
