Hi ...and thanks to Lynne for the alert.... Laughing out loud
Our storks are back....early this year...
I suppose the warm weather gave them the chance to come earlier

Do you remember the nests in Bornheim Puzzled:

At the nest 1 the birds came back...before 10 days and they are busy on the construction of their nest and mate continously...I suppose we will see eggs early ...But who knows...

After the request of a special person ... Laughing out loud I decided to post some pics here...to watch the progress of the nest ...like the last year ..If there isn't any problem with Africam of course... Puzzled :roll:

Edit : If you like to see pictures from the last year ...scroll this thread down and you will find it at second page
