It looks like that. Not even an unknown male comes to visit anymore...

Looks like this nest is deserted for an unknown time

spring 2021:
... After 2004, the nest site remained empty. The male bird Tooni, who nested here at the time, moved to the adjacent territory.
... Black storks came back to the nest seen currently on the camera only a year or two ago. It is an old artificial nest. ...

who know who nested there these new times of this nest - probably it was Jan; Jan perished and the nest-life here is gone again

[Adria]

hm, but that the females who fought here last year for Jan didn't come back either.. ?

[marika.solo]

we don't know who the female was that was there once
(females usually fly to the nest when invited by the male)

Ah, naughty Jan. The mate is on the nest and he seduces other females .
Thanks Marika for the clarification.

Anyway, it's a shame that this beautiful nest in this mysterious forest is empty this year...
