We are so pleased to announce that with a total of 45 chicks ringed this year @kneppwilding.bsky.social, most have taken their first flights!

Here is the moment the first live cam chick fledged!

Now, this year's chicks are honing their flying skills and preparing to migrate soon.

The live cam chicks at @kneppwilding.bsky.social are getting ready to fledge– flapping, stretching, and testing their wings!

The oldest is 60 days old, so fledging could happen any moment now.

Their first flight is always a thrill so tune in live on YouTube and don't miss it! 🎥

Exciting times, as our ground nesting white stork eggs are starting to hatch!

These birds were originally rescued from injuries in the wild by Warsaw Zoo
& form our non-flying stork population @kneppwilding.bsky.social

Last year, 9 chicks hatched on the ground & this years are just arriving!

Live cam update!

The chicks are nearly a month old and they can be left for short periods of time.

Here one of the parents brings some dung back to the nest, then delivers breakfast for the chicks.

Watch live on our YouTube channel!

Live cam chick update!

The 3 chicks are developing well, eating lots and moving around more. They're growing fast and mastering their bill clatter!

Ania and Bartek have been working hard to keep them well-fed and protected.

Keep up to date with the livestream action on our YouTube🎥

A beautiful morning @kneppwilding.bsky.social ☀️

Male and female white storks share the incubation of their eggs, swapping over to forage for themselves. Here, Ania takes over from Bartek to sit on their clutch of 4 eggs! 🪺

We expect hatching soon, so stay tuned on our youtube live cam! 🎥
