- our stork is back with moss and is defending "his" nest now this way

[marika.solo]

- he manipulates the camera/branch it is mounted on again and again
- time to time he is calling

[marika.solo]

- Anna must be nearby





Anna is flying around (in the circle)

"The male ONLY DEFENDED THE NEST briefly and chased Anna away, but she came through the back door. So the male left the nest."

I'm sorry, but I don't have time to observe and document so much happening (and the migration is still ongoing)
