Are all of them guys?

A long piece of wood means a stick, it's a funny name for a stork.

now isn't info about gender
"Na razie nie znamy płci piskląt i niestety nie wiemy kiedy ją poznamy."

btw. asteria, you wrote on Karula youtube chat "Sometimes storklets from one nest fly together, sometimes separately." I hadn't this info - pls more concrete about the example "fly together".

[asteria]

2008, Estonia, Donna&Padis nest: Mid and Little flew together, their elder sister Big flew earlier
2011, Estonia, Tiit&Tiina nest: all the four storklets(Uks, Kaks, Kolm/Johanna and Neli) flew separately
2012, Tiit&Tiina nest: Tommy and Kelly flew together
2013, Tiit&Tina nest: Liina and Miiko flew separately
2015 Zile&Ozols nest: Ziluks and Ziluka flew together
2017, Dab nest: Woodek and Malwin flew separately

[Solo]

2012, Tiit&Tiina nest: Tommy and Kelly flew together
2015 Zile&Ozols nest: Ziluks and Ziluka flew together

same time the storklets left the nest, but flew not the same route - same migration path
This is not enough data for the common summer claim ""Sometimes storklets from one nest fly together, sometimes separately." just left the nest in one day, nothing more
I followed migration path and read about storklets from one nest with transmitter - but still they are only few data

[asteria]

We can't say anything about that, because only Ziluka and Mid had the transmitter. But the fact is that some siblings fly away together and other ones do it separately.
