Good evening :hi:

Tatiana, thanks a lot for your always accurate and wonderful observations!
It’s a joy to read your reports and thoughts.

Heloise, your beautiful pictures made me smile! These storklets are indeed very funny and hyperactive. Thank you!

Swenja, a big thanks to you too for all today’s great work, as always. :thumbs:
What would we do without you!?

Good night, everyone.

Tomorrow may be a perfect day for our storklets U and/or P to make their first flight…
We’ll see. There’s no reason for them to hurry yet.
The longer they stay on the nest and are being cared for, the better.

T has lay down and the siblings probably want him/her to get up.

It does not help. T remains lying!
