These frequent false alarms are quite confusing. Also for the chicks.

We have seen a strange stork since spring. Kaia also threw a stranger out. And only recently Urmas confirmed an unringed stork feeding in the fish basket.
It could be a young stork, searching for a territory and annoying our nestlings here 😀

Better come in and feed the begging kids :D

Madli, let's be precise please
"Also Kaia or another not ringed stork was this mornig at fish basket, but not sure if there was fish anymore."

and btw. kid = (informal) a child or young person - we have chicks on the nest :-) (more precise nestlings)

yes, maybe it is a young stork, most probably female
