Racka, morčáka a kachnu jsme přemístili do voliéry

Asteria, all tree are in aviary (seagull + merganser + duck)

[asteria]

The duck wasn't attacked but her leg is broken or damaged, hope it is possible to treat her. In the evening the female WS also attacked Matys, Lyska and Snehurka. M&M are in the aviary too.

No idea, how many eggs they have though.

Wild storks in Makov also attacked even Barunek. Makov inhabitants have a hard time now.

Every year they lose storklets for some reason. In 2020 only one storklet hatched and died for some unknown reason.

chick perished already on June 22 (4 eggs, one chick)




who know the reason (they perished usually very early) - I am sorry for this pair

btw.
2019 one chick fledged (4 eggs, 4 hatched)
2018 two (4 eggs, 4 hatched - 1 eliminated, 1 unfortunately droped out )
2017 one (5 eggs, 4 chicks hatched)
2016 without eggs
2015 one storklet fledged

[asteria]

Yes, every year they lose storklets for some unknown reasons, maybe this time already the eggs were non-viable. When eaglet E14 died, people found that in happened because of rat poison, but all these chicks were definitely poisoned too. Or maybe they have some genetic disease.

Did you read somewhere about the autopsy and its results?

There can be several causes

I am not sure the autopsy ever took place. But when most storklets in the same nest suddenly die without any visible reason every year it is important to learn the reasons.

The best WS of this season, all the family is at home:

One of the storklets in Sokulka fledged yesterday.

The storklet damaged its leg but to catch a fledged bird is very hard and may hurt it.

July 15

I think this mole was still alive and very probably its massive claws destroyed the esophagus the elder already big storklet (the mole wanted maybe to get out and scratched)

storklet perished in the night
video: https://youtu.be/cMmYy-24fhw

current time is not safe to go to the nest for the body (because the younger storklet is before to fledge)

edit:
, I read that later (FB page): The mole lives while storklet has eaten it ... and as soon as the head of the mole was in the throat, the mole bit the young stork ... you can see immediately how the young stork reacts to it!
At 5:29 you can see on the neck that the mole is still alive! The blood of the young stork directly under the beak does not come from suffocation, but from the bite ... so it could have bled to the inside - still worse death"

Asteria, it seems a litlle better today, I hope it wasn't collision with unsecured power lines, cables not always they die after wards (you remeber probably on the storklet in Makov)
- finger crossed very, very much for the storklet (are here still food delivery?)

I don't remember the storklet in Makov but two years ago the saved storklet from Sokolka(Kubus) died after it flew in the unsecured power line.

Yes, I think the parents bring them food until the storklets stay in the nest(and probably feed them outside the nest too, remember Marushka)/

today I observed this nest time to time - they were storklet and adult birds on nest, but withou food delivery
the injured storklet is much better

(storklet in Makov perished after more weeks after colision )

7.43 The nest is empty, so the storklet with ill leg flew away with others.

In Russia, there is the Ryazan House of the White Stork, where they conduct the study of storks, the work there is scientific, there live two disabled storks Gosha and Ruslan, this year they have two storks that were ringed and they were wearing transmitters.
