The storks that I can see from my office window every summer came back last week, which is always so exciting!They are the only couple here in this area, and it looks like they already started hatching. Last year, they had one baby stork, and the before, there were 4 little ones.
I took a photo of the couple in the nest today; can't take better ones as my camera is really coming to its limits at such a distance.

Thanks!
Yes, I can see them; as soon as they are able to lift their little heads. They're growing fast btw. By the end of August, they'll have the size and the look of their parents, and leave for their long journey to South Africa.Are you able to see the little ones when they hatch?

Very cool!
I have only seen storks once, when I was in Morocco, they were much bigger then I expected!

What a wonderful photo. Is the nest new each year or do they refurbish one left from the year before?

Great photo! What have they built their nest on top of? (bad grammar, sorry)

Pillar, crumbling
What a great shot! And how I envy you for bing able to see them. In two villages nearby there are storks, so I see them from time to time on a wet meadow and on a horse pasture.
They are so beautiful.
Make sure you update us often

Okay, I'll try to take more pictures of them, and of their babies in case they really hatch.
They always use the same nest!Is the nest new each year or do they refurbish one left from the year before?
It's a chimney of an old factory, very high above the ground.What have they built their nest on top of?
