Hello everyone :-)

CHICK 🐥🐥🐥 (🐥) + 🐥
- 1st chick: 47 days old (hatched in the night 21./22.05)
- 2nd chick: 47 days old (hatched in the night 21./22.05)
- 3rd chick: 43 days old (hatched on 23. 05)
- 4th: on 24. 05; brood reduction by female on 28.05 - 4 days old :(

- one chick, Bonus 2, adopted on 18.06
- info about the 2nd saved chick: viewtopic.php?p=59858#p59858

Stork chicks grow exponentially. 90 days in the nest is like 18-21 years for humans. This means that 1 day in the nest is like almost 3 months for a human child. That is why their transformation is so amazing and fast.

Leg Ring Identification:
Three of the chicks carry rings 7201, 7202, and 7203, while the adopted/foster chick (referred to as "Bonus") carries the distinct ring 710L.

Nest Activity Log – 07/07/2026

A brief exchange occurred regarding the reporting style on the chat. A comment was posted by me expressing concern over the absence of Svetlana's regular, detailed updates. Following this, another member (@hommik72) criticised high-frequency reporting, stating that documenting every single second fills up the page unnecessarily and makes it difficult to read comments from others.
Apart from these remarks and the morning greetings, the chat remained quiet today, with only one single feeding event successfully recorded by the observers.


today you-tube chat (from 07:19 to 19:54) :-(, btw. there is only a minimum number of notes from observers on this chat, even on the days when Svetlana does not write.
