8.23 - streaming has been interrupted, Kaia on the nest


Info from liznm YT chat:
​9:41 parents switch, Karl comes home .. happy growling storklets
​- pretty long greeting .. no! they are defending
- ​must be another stork.. Kaia is whistling in a strange way
​9:43 she went on the curved branch
-​then she flies away
-​Karl turns in the nest and looks after her
-​Feeding.. pretty short. Karl seems alarmed. He flew away too
-​10:59 storklets are still alon e
-Until Karl's arrival, Kaia was completely relaxed. The intruder probably came along with Karl. That's a guess
