Hi Adriana, what do you think, was the second stork Kaia who landed on the camera and stranger on the balcony?

As I listened, the stranger whisteled like a male, but the one on the camera was a female. So maybe a strange pair- or a stranger who followed Kaia.
Although if it was Kaia, why didn't she land in the nest and chase the stranger away

There was a speculation in the YT chat that maybe there was Eedi- that would definitely not be possible- no rings visible on the stranger.
I know that there was a pair in Eedi's nest, but it wasn't certain if there was Eedi himself or a new pair..

I'll try to get more information

Hi Madli
it's hard to say, but there was an unknown stork on the terrace - I'd say a male, and who knows who on the camera - I could hear a weak sob. If it was Karl or Kaia, I think they would land on the nest and defend the chicks. Rather, the chicks were turned towards the unknown stork on the terrace and asked him for food . It's a pity that we don't have other cameras, so we can only make guesses .
