Did the new female misinterpret this behaviour? Flo didn't want to mate (was there another female nearby? Fer2 from the last season?)

13.06 mating
1/ female lurs - 2/ dancing - 3/ mating - 4/ yield
If male managed to jump on the back and female jerked his tail to the side and male curled his tail, it is copulation. In typical bird copulation, males and females momentarily press together their cloacas – genital openings – in what biologists call a cloacal kiss.

18.13 male FLO arrived and at 18.31 female FER 3 is back
nice greeting and mating
18.45 resting in the last sunshine
btw. at 18:21 common buzzard (maybe), FLO ruffled his feathers
edit:
prof. PZ commented "Buzzards often hang around nearby, but storks do not care about it, although when they fly too close they react with feathering/raising their feathers, e.g. 2:02:30" GT
