Hi Jan Kjenstad ..... thanks for that. I never thought I'd see this happen. It was as if they knew something disastrous had taken place. Bring on the eggs!!!! :D

Nobody there at all this morning, MD :-(

Hi Liese ...... do you think they've had an argument? One is in the nest and the other is standing at the end of the roof. Actually ... it doesn't look big enough for 2 ........ extension needed! :D
Liese Lindemann07/15/18 06:53
I hope so, MD!

Hi Liese ..... empty nest at the moment but I see on the stills that there were 2 storks here. Maybe next year we shall have storklets!!!!
MD05/31/18 14:16
Hahahahahaha!!!!! An easy mistake. :D

Hahaha! No no, I totally get the connection :-) I was at Edinburgh Zoo for a wedding recently and afterwards, saw the flamingos there. Alongside them were nearly identical birds, but much smaller and with feathers of a more intense pink. Baby flamingos, right? Wrong. After I had excitedly, loudly announced my discovery of the chicks to the rest of the world, I read the information sign. Whilst I was tipsily enjoying these pretty flamingo-lets, the rest of the visitors were quietly and soberly looking at the collection of Egyptian Ibis...as my old work colleague would have said, "RTFM!" ( Read The F@#%ing Manual! )

What a fantastic memory to treasure. I've never seen a stork in its natural habitat. The closest I've come to it was pink flamingos in The Camargue. They're pretty similar ...... one's pink ..... one's black and white .... but ...... they both have long legs. :D

I saw my first stork, on his nest, in Copenhagen. I was on holiday with my parents and I was only 6. When I saw that gigantic, beautiful white bird, opening his wings, on the top of someone's chimney, I didn't believe that he was real. I thought that the stork - and Denmark - must be part of a fairy story! A wonderful, happy memory now.
So true.

I wonder how this nest looks now:

Haha, yes MD! Not much variation in the old interior design! Happy to see two beautiful storks on this nest today, though :-)
Ooops! These nests all look the same ...... :D
Sorry, wrong cam...
