If I didn't know about storks, this comment would have definitely made me stop and read more!!  :o ;D

susha:
I guess we can hope that the other two eggs just aren't viable...that would be so much better...just saying...

irenekl:
Yeah the dread is upon me.  You just know with 5 eggs elimination is going to occur.

I think the storks have eaten a few babies every year that I have watched. It was shocking at first but by the same token. I couldn't figure out how 5 giant stork babies could fit in the nest. I guess the parents decide how many they can feed and which are the weak ones and take things into their own hands. I think there must always be some reason behind this kind of behavior even if I am not a bird/animal expert.
You are right though irenekl. It has been a bit of a downer to watch this, my favorite site have bad result after bad result.
