Another project here, an interesting and debatable one.

Bombed out house in Ukraine. Let’s hope this harbinger of new life brings hope.❤️
Back in the UK the Storks in Sussex are doing fine and it looks like it might be a record breaking year for breeding. 37 eggs presently being incubated across several nest sites. No luck though with the one with the webcam although some non breeding birds are visiting it occasionally.

Couple of nest shots taken in the last few days. Unfortunately not the webcam nest site though, that seems to have become a youth club as juveniles seem only interested in meeting up there and practicing nesting and courtship. High hopes for a very successful season across the occupied nests mind.

Brilliant news, six of the nine Sussex White Stork nests now have chicks - with a few more eggs due to hatch any day. In total there are now 23 chicks, all being busily fed by their parents. Several other birds also being reported across England including one in Cumbria and another in North Yorkshire this very morning.3 -
Well, the count goes up, now at least 29 chicks and possibly more to follow. Also good news of GB46 ‘Doris’ returning to UK and her natal area along with other previously released birds. It looks like an increasingly successful reintroduction project. Let’s hope they now spread out naturally our across the UK. Lots more non breeding birds being spotted across the country too.
All being well this will be a record year.

Latest news is a bit mixed but overall it looks like an excellent year for this fantastic reintroduction project.

Just had an email from the UK White Stork Project. It reads~
There are currently eleven active nests at Knepp, which includes two nests that are in the process of being built. Spring is certainly in the air now, and we're very hopeful for another bumper breeding season!
We hope to have the live cam up and running soon, so please keep an eye out on our social media for a link to that in due course.
I’m also informed that we should keep our eyes peeled as further expeditionary arrivals and wanderers could be expected elsewhere across the UK. Storks may be headed your way!👍
