Offspring in the stork nest

A photo has shown that the couple of storks have offspring in Kottgeisering. Two baby storks are already carefully peering over the edge of the nest.

Kottgeisering - That the rattling stork brings human babies is an old legend that is told to young children. In Kottgeisering, Master Adebar now has offspring himself. Two baby storks are already carefully peering over the edge of the nest on the hose tower of the fire brigade (town hall). And they greedily await the food that the parents can bring in by chord.

"There has been a lot of activity for days," reports Dieter Eder. He had already assumed that the offspring was the cause. Confirmation brought a photo from the roof window. The stork expert finds it interesting that there are often other storks in the area and circle the nest. Real scenes of jealousy are to be observed around the town hall of the community. And this despite the fact that there is another nest in the immediate vicinity on the roof of the library that has not yet been occupied.

Now there is great hope that the stork parents will be able to get both babies through. In 2019, only one survived. The decisive factor is how hard it will rain in the next few weeks. The old are shielded from light precipitation by spreading their wings. But constant rain and cold endanger the stork babies.
