Parco Gallipoli - Oliveto Lucano

the chick to the left ate very good (storklet has a thick neck)

[marika.solo]

food is on the way?

[marika.solo]

yes, MALE arrived
(the stream again offered only next two pics )

[marika.solo]

still swallowing one fish





one neck seems to me again thicker (or it is only camera view - this stork is near to the camera)

again jump in the streaming and sibling is away

[marika.solo]

all the time I had the impression that the stork was carefully watching the movement of its sibling (the movement of the head gave me this impression)

short before sibling's arrival


like defending position (wide wings) - who is coming?


again jump - "only" sibling arrived
