Lots of smaller sized fish. I see some of them are still jumping on the nest floor?

[Madli]

After feeding Iks is active and jumping

[Madli]

16.33 Iks thinks about stepping on the curved branch, but not yet.


16.58 Bonus takes a twig and brings it to Iks. They play with it together

[Madli]

Bonus and Iks sitting together, Iks is gently preening Bonus. They just look so sweet together- a perfect combo

18.44 Waba is starting to bully the siblings again
First unsuccessful beak fighting with Iks..


Then steps on Bonus's bill..

[Adria]

Bonus often ascended and descended from a curved branch




19.04 Iks is training

[Madli]

Then Waba still tries to initiate bill fight with Iks, unsuccessfully though..


And then Waba moves to Bonus's transmitter..


and Bonus's bill..


Waba often seems to me as very energetic, often dominating stork. During feedings, Waba is always quite aggressive and fights for food. Already as a little chick, Waba, the oldest storklet of KK, won most of the best food and was able to swallow huge fish already at very young age. Waba is the one who most of the times calls others to "duel" (beak fighting) and attempts the quasi-copulations..
