Hello everyone!

I think Jan observed the nest very well.
Perhaps he acted deliberately in such a way that he did not return to the nest again.
Jan may have seen that 2 of his young storks are dead
and that the last little stork was fed 2 times with lots of fish
so that it also flies away very quickly.
Elsewhere it has already been observed that storks that fledged early
and were near the nest were fed by the parent stork for a short time.

My best wishes for little Julge ♥ Jan & Janika
and of course for Kaia & Karl II and his two young storks.

How the juveniles learn to fish?

Easy! If they do not fish, then they do not spread their genes. Only those can get chicks, who have instinct to fish in suitable places. First fishing could happen far away form home nest, but also near the nest. More possibilities and more time to find right places and practice fishing have those who's body condition is better. Their batteries are more charged and stand for longer (before additional food).

Some cases are known, when adult feeds chick outside the nest, but first place to come to feed is nest. If one chick is in nest and begs, no much chances for others outside the nest. But if nest collapses and chicks survive that - adults can start feeding on ground. That takes probably some time and hesitating from adult, but may happen. Since on ground predators find the chicks.
I recalled that during the passionate debate on Benjamin, an opinion was made that these BSs aren't our pets, and rescuing him would render him unable to learn how to find food and build nests.

So does that make the above opinion false then?

:hi: tsang,
- it wasn't my opinion
- the proportion of innate and possible learned behaviour is still being investigated (the prevailing opinion is that the behaviour is innate, only later experiential learning is added)
- the rescue of young black storks is very questionable, the experience is negative - the animals end up (at best?) in the ZOO or are back in the RS (= rescue station) due to the inability to live independently (perhaps also due to the habit of man as a source of food)

Also the storklets, hatched in the zoo are moved to other zoos for the same reason: they won't survive in wild nature.

Here's a fresh and loosely associated story about a rescue of a young black stork in northern Estonia: https://lemmik.postimees.ee/7330203/har ... 1630755893

It is said that it's a Latvian stork who had been wandering in someone's backyard for several days. Unfortunately, it remains unclear what's wrong with the bird. Maybe it's said in the Facebook account (to which I have no access).

In pictures, the storklet is wrapped like a present.

Hello Trine and all BS friends! The same news is here in more detail from the Estonian Wildlife Association (Eesti Metsloomaühing, Facebook), small overview:

Edit: unfortunately, the results of the medical examination are not yet known.

Hallo zusammen, :wave:
Julge flies across Germany, how cool, his current route is about 95 km away from me by car. But he's already below me, more south. Where is he heading?! If he continues flying over this line like this, then it could be over Luxembourg, France, Spain, over the Strait of Gibraltar to Morocco. :shake:

:hi: to all!

RD may simply live here, it is their home too, maybe their hole is right under the nest. If it is so, it means that nothing can be done to defend future storklets from this nest. :unsure:

:hi:
I just checked birdmap and read about Julge's journey. What a brave little stork. He got a very suitable name!

It seems he is near Olpe/Germany - not far from me. Nice landscape with storage dams and lots of rivers and brooks and nice trees for the night. I am sending my best wishes to him :2thumbsup:

Solo, :hi: Yeah, they climb so high! They were also on my balcony in Berlin. They fetched bird seed.
here she/he is :laugh: I like mice. They were a good source of food for our buzzard.

Apart from that, you can see them in various eagle nests

:hi:

Thank you, Hellem and Solo. :wave:
Maybe it is the same goshawk that flew past sometimes during the nesting. Anyway, now we can look at it calmly.
