unfortunately, I don't have pictures from the feeding, but you can see that they ate again

Hi Adriána,
how did you see the stork "twin" on Sunday? (I was not at home).
I often have the impression that there is the 1st (or 2nd) hatched + the 3rd hatched.

They just exceptionally seem to me to be the same size.
e.g. here


I see the difference not only in size but also in the stage of development (standing, new feathers, ...).
What is your opinion?

I welcome everyone's opinion!

Hi Marika.
On Sunday, the difference was not as clearly visible as yesterday . One made an enormous growth yesterday. Early yesterday evening I wanted to write it too - as if he had grown by 5 cm

So do you think we see on the nest the "twins" (the ones that hatched on May 1) and the difference is only because one of them grows more, faster (the bigger storklet eats more food)

to 99 percent. The distance of the camera from the nest is large, so it is difficult to determine that these are the ones from May 1st. But the dead chick was the smallest, so it is assumed that it was also the youngest.
