Black storks- very rare and secretive birds, so it is quite difficult to study them. They live in overgrown old forests, in the foothills, mainly near water bodies, away from human settlements. Sometimes they soar for a long time in the nest area, in flight resembling any other stork - stretching out their neck and legs, spreading their wings wide. When flying, black storks make beautiful calls that sound like “chi-li” or “chi-lin”.

Black storks- birds are monogamous, couples remain with them for life. Storks start nesting immediately after their return from warm lands, in late March - early April. The couple arranges a nest in a tree, occasionally on ledges of rocks, building it from large dry branches, fastened together with clay and earth. The same nest can serve for many years, just being updated from year to year. In Belovezhskaya Pushcha in Belarus there was a nest where storks raised their chicks for fourteen years in a row. Over time, the nests turn into huge semicircular structures with a diameter of up to one and a half meters. Black storks do not form colonies and settle singly, so that one pair usually occupies a large territory.
Having arranged a nest, the male invites the female to breed, performing a mating dance. It fluffs up its white undertail and lets out hoarse cries.
Females lay from 4 to 7 eggs, rarely 2-3. Eggs are laid at intervals of 2 days, and incubation begins with the first egg. Quite often, one or two eggs in a clutch are unfertilized. Both parents incubate the eggs alternately for 30 days. Chicks are not born at the same time, covered with white or grayish down, with a bright yellow-orange beak, and for the first 10 days they only lie in the nest, unable to even sit down. They begin to stand on their feet at the age of 35-40 days. At the age of 50 days, having already fully fledged, but still being in the nest, the chicks acquire the weight of their parents, then lose weight a little, since the parents feed them less intensively at this time. Young storks fly out of the nest at the age of 64-65 days. Already in early August, families and small flocks of black storks begin to move south, although with an abundance of food they can linger until October.
These birds become sexually mature at the age of three.

Black storks feed on fish, frogs, lizards, small snakes, rodents, large insects, molluscs. For food, birds fly quite far - five, and sometimes ten kilometers from the nest, to hunt in swamps, shallow rivers or damp meadows. Parents feed chicks 4-5 times a day. One case is known when a bird brought to its chicks at once about fifty frogs with a total weight of half a kilogram. Storks regurgitate food for offspring.
Black stork- one of the rarest birds in the world. Despite the wide range of habitat, the number of these birds continues to be very low. In Russia, there are three regions with a relatively high number of black storks - these are the Kaliningrad region, Ciscaucasia and Primorye. In other areas, stork settlements are occasional and rare. In total, from 2300 to 2500 pairs nest on the territory of Russia. According to some estimates, the number of storks is declining, according to others it remains steadily low.

Black storks have no natural enemies, so the main factors determining their numbers are considered to be a reduction in the food supply and deforestation suitable for habitation.
The presence of a nest of black storks in Russia is sufficient grounds for declaring a protected area or at least restricting the access of a large number of people to this area. Bilateral agreements have also been concluded with Japan, Korea, India and the DPRK on the protection of wintering birds. Of course, the black stork is listed in the Red Book.
Curiously, attempts have been made in zoos to cross black storks with whites, and male black storks even begin to court female white storks, but due to large differences in mating rituals, females usually do not accept these courtships.

This year, black storks arrived at their renovated nest on April 8th. On the same day, with a small interval, first the male, then the female.

The male Karl is recognizable by the rings on his paws and the transmitter behind his back. The female Katya is not ringed. The nest is in order and we are waiting for the first egg to appear.

Today I covered in detail what is happening in the black stork's nest.

Urmas Sellis will write more about the nest, the arrival of its owners and the whole event.

Black storks on the day of arrival.

Photo from footage selected Hagnat from the Nature Calendar forum.

A pair of black storks nesting in Karula National Park has been our third year of monitoring. About the first installation of the camera and background on the talk pageELF(Estonian Fund for Nature) there is a detailedphoto report. By the time the camera was installed this year, the old nest was partially collapsed, which is why we built an “artificial” nest nearby.


Construction of an "artificial" nest.


Last year's nest collapsed.

Probably, the storks themselves would have tried to fix the collapsed nest, but it is not known whether it would have withstood the nesting process. The supporting branch of the old nest has dried up, and the rest of the structure is also dilapidated. We managed to take some of the material for the new nest from the old one, but we also used spruce branches and poles.

"Artificial" nest and old natural nest (top view).

Since the installation of the camera took place late in the evening, its angle had to be corrected later. And still not quite the right angle, I went over something with the angle.

Both birds arrived at the nest on April 8, 2018.

Transmission from the camera is carried out via a linkWi- fidirectly to the mastTELE2, located in Ansla, through the antennaMikrotik. Then the signal goes through the cable to the serverEENetwhere the stream is created. In parallel, the stream is also created throughYouTube. Different users like different formats. Some restreamers are known to use this black stork camera. So, for example, according to the environmentok, from the black stork camera restream had 4 million views in 2017. But of course, we do not know all the restreamers.

The use of the stream from the nest cameras is not prohibited, however, if possible, please let us know (see contacts below or send a message tourmas@ kotkas. ee). Supporting us "godfathers" to each cell are needed, because. every year some components need to be exchanged. For this we have no project support.KIK(Centre for Investing in the Environment) supported the installation, removal and maintenance of the cameras. We also received some donations to support the camera.

A camera is installed near the nestAXIS F41 with a microphone made by Omar. This chamber of black storks was also mentioned in in AXIS Annual Report 2017 . We hope that our recommendations will be taken into account in further improvements to the cameras. And all in order to transmit the best quality video and audio signal.

People watching the life of black storks (Katya and Karla) in Karula started a fundraising process last year to provide three chicks this year with transmitters to keep track of them after they leave the nest. We hope that the nesting will be successful and we will be able to realize it! Details of what is happening in the nest can be found at.

For comparison, we advise you to look at what is happening in the nests of black storks in other countries:

Latvia; Hungary

To make the black stork camera work, many people have contributed:

Eagle Fanciers Club Kotkaklubi – searching for a nest and installing a camera
EENet – stream encoding and distribution to users, technical support, material recording
beta - Grupp – camera testing and setup, building a microphone
TELE 2 – mobile mast of the receiving antenna, installation of the antenna on the mast,provofiber optic cable
