Title: Black Storks - Estonia / Looduskalender
Post by: cadria on July 10, 2011, 21:56
Here is another cool cam that I have watched for a couple of years.  I started out watching Bald Eagles and then found Storks...Storks are so cool to watch and the Black Stork is so unique! :)

You need to have Silverlight installed (free from Microsoft) and when you see the player appear on the page, click on play.  It will take a few minutes, but it will load.

OR

Open up Windows Media Player > File > Open URL >type in or paste in the following mms://tv.eenet.ee/kurg

It looks like there are 3 storklets in the nest, but they are all snuggled together, so there is a chance I am missing one..who knows? ;)

This is in Estonia and is 8 hours ahead of us in the CST zone.  Right now it is almost 10:00 p.m., but they are just getting active, as it is 6:00 a.m. the next day.

Any questions, please ask.

This is a wonderful webcam  to watch, cadria. :D Thanks for posting the link. It looks to me like there may be 4 storklets in the nest. At first glance, they look frozen, but they do move around a bit if you watch long enough. 8) And I have never seen black storks before. Didn't know they even existed.

Ha ha, yes, I first thought 3, but  after they uncurled themselves, I noticed that there are actually 4!  I have been watching stork nests for a few years now and came across the Black Storks.  I never realized they existed either until I found the cam. :)
