The storks are increasingly shaping the landscape. Here, "on the sand" near Altheim, there are 2 clearly visible nests. One sits on a steel lattice mast, the other is now in its second year (2020) on a tree halved by storm Fabienne. Yesterday (16.03.2020) you could count 11 Storchen specimens in the surrounding area right away.

Here, for download, a treatise on Ladadi's bird life. On p. 27 an interesting subchapter on white storks and how they developed in the district:

STILL INTERESTING if you want to know where they are going and how they are doing:

You can now observe 10+ occupied nests in the trees in spring (still without foliage).
