Hello everyone

in the early morning nest is already empty

- adult stork (male ?) is on the nest at 09.50 (Imisse his arrival)
- on the pic at 09.53.16 he is calling
- on the pic at 09.54.00 both are on the nest
- it again seems like defending behaviour for a while (pic at 09.54.36 still)
- preening follows

- at 10.04.29 defending behaviour again
- they calmed down at 10.06.33

- bonding behaviour follows

- 14.09 storklet arrived to the empty nest, later also adult stork is on the pic (there are big jumps in streaming )

[marika.solo]

- next arrival of the young stork, it seems on interesting communication between the adult stork and the chick

(I will upload pic later - no I am travelling, probably without internet connection for the next 2 days)
