A baby soon to be delivered by a stork

 Saw the Stork Success story on "SpringWatch" last night, CP was waxing lyrical as only he can !!

Non the less it shows Human Interference can be a Good Thing  ! ( at times   )

We may have to wait alittle longer but this is really good news.

Thrigby Hall in Norfolk have Storks which aren't restrained so often see them around the area 

Yet another bumper year and a record number of fledglings. Coming soon to a place near you,  hopefully! Fantastic news of even more UK bred storks in 2023.

“We are thrilled to share the news that this has been a record year for our storks at Knepp, with 26 young successfully fledged from 11 nests. Most of these juveniles are still regularly returning to their nests to be fed by their parents. They are learning to forage for themselves and have been seen wading through ponds and searching for insects in long grass.” Thanks to our satellite tags, we will be able to monitor and share news on their movements over the coming weeks and months!

Following on from another bumper year of fledglings good news as they gather with previous years birds at the shortest channel crossing point to venture south. Hopefully these birds will return to increase the UK wild population even further in future years!

“The GB white storks are on the move!

Over the last couple of days some of our storks have flown across the channel into France, the map shows the movement of GBD8, bred at the Cotswold Wildlife Park and released at Knepp last week. The journey so far has taken around two days.

We are excited to follow the movement of this bird and our other satellite tagged storks and will shortly be sharing more updates on their movements on our website: https://www.whitestorkproject.org

We have had reports of sightings of many white storks flying around Dover this week and it is likely that they are crossing together in groups.”
