21.04 Supper time for the storklets. Their black feathers have grown considerably over the last few days and they can stand for longer. Pa Stork stands guard.

Another stork, another nest, another rescue centre. This one is in the Czech Republic. No idea how many eggs are being incubated here. This nest and those in the Polish rescue centre linked above kept me company last winter while the Knepp nest cam was switched off.

16.01-16.04 Changing of the guard on the nest: Pa Stork (who you can recognise by the two loose black feathers on his right side) flies in and preens himself. Ma Stork stands up, revealing the two storklets that she's keeping warm, and flies off to get more supplies. Pa Stork sits down on the little ones. https://whitestorkproject.org/live-cam-feed/ #StorkFamCam #Stork #Storks #Knepp #ReWilding #BioDiversity #Störche #Storche #WhiteStork #WhiteStorks #BirdsOfMastodon #Birds #Webcam #SolarPunkSunday

Second storklet has hatched on the Knepp webcam nest! Scroll back to 10.12-10.13 on the webcam feed to see two little heads.

Mobilfunknest
Zwei Weißstörche stehen auf ihrem Nest, welches sie auf der Spitze eines hohen Mobilfunkmastes bei Verl-Sürenheide gebaut haben.
Zeichen des Frühjahrs: Wenn die Zugvögel zurückkehren
Sie zählen zu den schönsten Boten des nahenden Frühlings: Zurzeit treffen viele Vogelarten in Deutschland ein - und bereichern Mensch und Natur mit ihren Gesängen.
Vielerorts kann man sie schon sehen - und vor allem hören. Viele #Kraniche, #Störche und weitere Vögel sind bereits aus ihren #Winterquartieren nach Deutschland zurückgekehrt. Zahlreiche andere sind im Anflug.
Ein Bauer hat heute gepflügt. Auf dem Acker lief ein Möwenschwarm herum, alle suchten ausgegrabenes Futter. Mittendrin: diese zwei #Störche, immer noch im Lande, vielleicht wieder über den Winter hier.
2024 sind in Schleswig-Holstein insgesamt 890 Jungstörche geschlüpft. Diese Brutbilanz ist rekordverdächtig.
In ganz Schleswig-Holstein gab es 514 Brutpaare, die laut der NABU-Arbeitsgruppe Storchenschutz insgesamt 890 Jungstörche großgezogen haben. Das sind so viele Jungstörche wie seit 50 Jahren nicht mehr. Zum Vergleich: Im Jahr 1974 waren es 945 Jungstörche.
