Alysser, I'm sorry to hear about the eagles, but I'm glad that the remaining one found a new mate. Unfortunately, it's very unlikely that this will happen to our stork lady. Storks only mate once for one summer, so she will stay alone for the rest of the season. Even if she would have new eggs now, the babies won't be strong and big enough for the flight back to Africa in the late summer. But I'll hope she'll be back next year with a new partner.

moosmom, it's true that nature seems to be cruel sometimes, but in this case, it wasn't nature but human technology that killed the stork and destroyed his family.
