Karl was in the nest for the last time yesterday at 17.15. He left in a hurry.
His transmitters data session failed.

Next data about Karl II scheduled today evening. No idea, why last transmission failed. There in feeding territory are some places without of GSM network, but rarely it really was the case in past. It affected more neighbor Eedi (with older type of transmitter).
Can imagine, if stork is during transmission time in some low place, e.g. channel or stream between hills to search for food, there may be no network.

10.06 KARL arrives!
Chicks were alone for 4 h 12 min.
The chicks immediately start to beg for food- they must be already very hungry.

Re: Karula National Park (Karl II and Kaia)
Karl is preening himself for a few minutes, while the chicks are still begging and twittering.

We can't forget how beautiful is Karl's plumage
..and some more preening.
