FEEDINGs
- feeding x 4
- Flo x 2, Fer x 2
- 3 times there were frogs, and once it was not seen

STORKLETs
- our chicks are falling apart, but they are not always together
- Figo is gaining self-confidence, today he broke the record - 555 m from the nest, Fago 250 m
- they were still in the forest or on the forest road; these are not yet places where they could feed - of course, in the forest they could catch some grass frogs, but all this is not enough

TRANSMITTERs
- the one from Piotrków (hatched 2020) took a trip to Ukraine today, but returned to Moldova for the night

VISITs
- 07.13 - two deer on the right

STORKLETs
- Previous season (2021): On 7.08.2021 at 7.15 Frezija flies out of the nest and does not return anymore; at 9:15 Felek flies out of the nest and does not come back, only Florek stayed until August 14.

- Our FIGO has 80 days today; today Figo flew out of the nest at 5.42; it announced yesterday that storklet was flying apart good; today he made a flight around the area; it had ponds, rivers, swamps under it; the farthest point from the nest is 14,84 km
- FAGO flew out at 5.49, but did not catch the flight with Figo; she flew other way; the farthest point of Fago is 2.44 km from the nest; it was the farthest distance, but it is still not enough
- about Figo, we can be calm;. he is flying very well; these sharks plucked from his sister gave him strength; this 500 g difference in weight has a lot of importance; Figo can fly away at any moment and not come back
- but Fago better to eat for a few more days on the nest and as well she tried longer flights

- at 9:19 Flo arrives, at 9:22 Fer - they did not see each other (in the nest) for almost two months - it was on 16.06.2022; Fer flew in and changed Flo, Flo flew away, and Fer fed the chicks and she stayed for the night
- Flo was briefly on the nest, departed at 9.27, Fer departed a few minutes later at 9.30

- at 9.54 Fago returns and at 11.55 Figo returns from his long reconnaissance; despite Fago's greater activity, Figo is already prepared for departure
- today at 16.07 pm he did a second loop, but exactly the opposite direction; flew off at 8.17 km from the nest; these are his first truly exploration flights; Figo is surprised with his possibilities, and hence this afternoon flight

TRANSMITTERs
- the stork from Piotrków is still on the border, but this time he found a clump of trees in Ukraine, and stork flies 1 km foraging in a floodplain in Moldova

As I understand, these might be the very last moments for Figo and Fago in the nest together. Figo is ready to take on the big journey.

Sibling love

FEEDINGs
- today there was only one feeding: Florentino 15.38 - frogs and tadpoles
- as for Fer, it is still unknown what she did; she probably won't show up any-more, but we'll see

STORKLETs
- in the morning session our chicks flew more or less together; the maximum distance for Figo and Fago is 13.6 km
- in the afternoon session the young flew out at 15.38 right behind Florentino; but Figo flew away for about 10 km at most and
FAGO flew on; at 18h she was 12 km from the nest and the contact broke off; only tomorrow we'll find out where she stayed overnight; and FIGO came back and sad that he had no sister here, he hid under the camera😉

previous season: On 08.08.2021 Frezja and Felek overnight near Beresteczek in Ukraine, but in separate woods, 10 km from each other. They got lost just before dark.

TRANSMITTERs
- no new data today

Q
Anna Kharlamova: Can the strokes see in the dark?
A
Piotr Zieliński: @Anna Kharlamova they see, but poorly and prefer not to fly at night
Q
Anna Kharlamova: So do storks see infrared?🤔
A
Piotr Zieliński: @Anna Kharlamova no, but they see it in ultraviolet light

🎬 WHEN THERE ARE NO CHILDREN AT HOME
Is this the last meeting of our royal couple from the oak nest in the province Łódź? Let's look at these wonderful parents again!
For some time, they only take turns at the nest to feed the young, so on August 7, 2022 they met for the first time in a long time - now, when the offspring leave the house by themselves, it happens that the house is free 😎 Florentino and Fermina could use it, to spend a while together again ... like at the beginning of this season.
It got romantic - see for yourself
Although, of course, less intensively, because the most important task - starting a family - is behind them.
A video from the nest observer - Justyna, thank you! ☺️

STORKLETs

Let's start with FAGO:
- Yesterday Fago flew out at 15:38 for Figo and Florentino; she flew 12 km SE and wandered around a bit and spent the night in the forest 9 km from the nest.
- Today she did not fly away far, she was in the area of the previous accommodation and stayed in that area, i.e. 9 km from the nest.
That is, she is close enough that when she gets hungry, she may return to the nest again.

FIGO - this bull:
- Figo flew out today at 5:39 - and did not look back at 15:04 he flew over the Vistula, at 18:00 the contact broke off, but he was still flying. Only tomorrow evening we will find out where he stayed for the first time outside the nest, at 18:00 he was between Tarnów and Rzeszów, the direction is correct.
- Figo has already started his journey to Africa, tomorrow we will find out where he stayed today. I'll write a post. It'll be Thursday morning. So far he has traveled 210 km.

"FEEDINGs"
- at 18:52 Fermina returns to the nest, looks around a little tidying up, waits, looks around again and leaves at 19:17. This is her second arrival at an empty nest. And probably the last one.
- but Florentino was still with food yesterday at 15:38 and fed two chicks; tomorrow he should have a check-up

TRANSMITTERs
- other transmitters did not send any new data

Q
Anna Kharlamova: Don't storks flock to migrate to Africa?
A
Piotr Zieliński: @Anna Kharlamova - do not flock
Q
Anna Kharlamova: Will parents and children recognize each other when they meet one day?
A
Piotr Zieliński: @Anna Kharlamova - I don't know


-----
The streaming will be available for a long time. we have full option. The system was optimally configured this season.
But if there is, for example, a storm and breaks the cable, we will not travel and repair it anymore.
If nothing goes wrong earlier, we will turn off in September.
-----
I'll be gone tomorrow, I'll be on Thursday and the last time on Friday
