Last weekend, when we were on the way to my daughters horseback riding class we saw these cute guys and gals in the field which bordered to the road:
Not ONE, but a total of SIX white storks in our small village, YEAH! (sorry, can't get all six storks on one photo).
Here is a close up of two of them:
They are really rare and I have never seen more than one of them in
real life, so taking pictures of a group of six white storks is really
like hitting the jackpot :-) Other people thought the same - dotzens of
cars were promptly stopping and their driver were taking pictures - like
me ;-) Luckily there were no car accidents :)
I know
that a single pair of storks is breeding every year quite near to us
(about 20 km - 12 miles) but I have never seen them live. Only through
the webcam... so this is really something special for me.
In case you are interest in the webcam, just take a look here. The page is in german but the link goes directly to the webcam, so german language skills are not necessary. But if you are intereset: Right now, three of the eggs are hatched :)
Have a great day,
