I hope you enjoy it.

Thank you Doris, I did enjoy it. You all do such a wonderful job of keeping me up with all your wonderful videos and pictures.

Thank you Yahootie, your welcome.
You saw Mrs. Katharina Illig banding our storklets, she does it every year and she is very experienced.
She talked about putting the bands correct together.
(In South-West Germany a stork was banded with two different halfs of a band. It has now 2 numbers. )
And she was talking about what storks bring into the nest, like plastics, so the water can't run out of the nest and the storklets may drown or become cold.
You saw her removing a bit black plastics
Often the storks bring up binder twine, so the babies or the adults may tangle in it and die.
And once she found an opened newspaper in the nest.
It was the "Neues Deutschland" (New Germany), the former mouthpiece of the former GDR government.

OOOOPS!




It was a very short dated term today.

Im Storchenhorst Vetschau und Raddusch OT von Vetschau wurden heute jeweils 2 Storchenküken beringt. Der Termin war sehr kurzfristig zustande gekommen hat aber als Ursache die Kükengröße in anderen Horsten rund um Luckau die auch heute durch die Beringerin Frau Illig mit Ringen versehen werden. Wie immer stellte der Stromversorger enviaM die Technik zur Verfügung
Es werden ca. 40 Storchenküken nach Möglichkeit am heutigem Tage beringt.

Translation:

In Stork Nest Vetschau and Raddusch OT Vetschau were each 2 stork chicks banded. The appointment came very short noticed but has reached its cause of the chick`s size in other nests around Luckau and have been banded today by Mrs. Illig with rings. As always, the power company Envia made the technology available
There are about 40 stork chicks to band if possible on this day.

Hello All
Had computer problems, so missed a few days.
Thanks for all the videos. Does anyone know when the chicks will be named??

Have a great week...Summer is starting here

Hope someone is getting photos/video right now. Both are standing on their 'long' legs and stretching wings. Looked like one was putting his wing around the other one. Very cute
