Another stork arrives and lands nearby!


The stork lands out from the camera view.

Svetlana!!!:
15.43 - KERGU AND FEMALE
Berta A.
​She was flying on the left so must be near.
Disappointed
Svetlana !!!
She is still there, we just don’t see her
16.27 - Kergu flew off the nest
16.29 - returned and flew away
​16.32 - flew in, screaming
Berta A.​
16.32 The lady was flying to the left.
Svetlana !!!
16.34 - flew away

Yana re​
15:43:39 The female flies in the background
16:23:35 Quiet voice of a female
Although it was probably Kergu who sniffled But she was there
16:26:57 And here, as if Kergu chased a male...
​16:32 -16:34 Probably drove another male (Nurme again?)
16:36:37 Stork below ... and further clapping of wings ...
16:36:52 Two storks below .. Apparently there was a fight?
​16:39:03 Kergu screams very far away
​16:35:09 Stork in the background
​16:36:20 Stork below

Yana re
Maybe Kergu will fly to spend the night if he gets worried that a stranger was at the nest ..
He was very worried and often lay down in the nest, more like that the male made him nervous with his presence ..
Svetlana !!!
Yana, Kergu wouldn’t lie down by strange male, it was a female!

EDIT:
while I was preparing this, Madli already started documenting - very well!

15.53 He calls again and lies down.


15.58 Kergu stands up and the subtle voice of the other stork is heard ( a female voice)

Kergu works hard to call her to the nest, but she doesn't come.

Kergu stands silently and moves very slowly.


16.19 Kergu keeps calling and inviting, touching the twigs

[Madli]

Kergu is trying to stay patient

[Madli]

16.26 He stands up, calls shortly and flies out
I didn't hear the female fly away- so maybe Kergu flew next to her?




Yes, I think he landed on the nearby branch, he whistles as he lands.

[Madli]

16.27 He calls from the nearby. (I don't hear ananswer from the female)
16.28 I hear a lift-off sound from the nearby branch, Kergu's instant whistle comes from a little further.

16.29 Kergu is back, calling for her and then instantly out gain.




I hear his calls further away.

16.32 Kergu arrives-from the other side


He calls, looks around and flies out again.
16.34 Kergu flies out.
He calls in the forest.

[Madli]

He didn't return again after that.

[Madli]

Looks like Kergu won't sleep in the nest tonight.
