Vetschauer Jungstörche erhalten Name und Ring

Am Mittwoch, den 27. Juni Vormittags erhalten „unsere“ Jungstörche ihre Ringe und gleichzeitig wird eines der beiden „getauft“. Das erstgeschlüpfte Küken bekam seinen Namen „Zora“ schon nach dem Schlupf. Dies erfolgte am „Tag der offenen Tür“ beim NABU Regionalverband Calau e.V. im Weißstorch-Informationszentrum Vetschau/Spreewald.

Die Beringung nimmt erneut Frau Katharina Illig aus Luckau vor. Die Hebetechnik stellt der Energieversorger enviaM. Interessierte Bürgerinnen und Bürger sowie Gäste des Spreewaldes sind herzlich eingeladen, diese Aktion direkt im Weißstorch-Informationszentrum der Niederlausitz in Vetschau/Spreewald mit zu erleben. Im Internet wird die Beringung live übertragen. Oft sorgen sich Storchenfreunde, dass die Jungen beim beringen aus dem Nest springen könnten oder die Altstörche die Jungen verlassen. All das ist im Normalfall nicht zu befürchten.

Vetschauer young storks get the name and ring

On Wednesday, 27th June in the morning, "our" young storks get name and their rings; at the same time one of the two will be "baptized". The first hatched chick got his name "Zora" after hatching. This was done in the "open day" at the regional association NABU Calau eV in the White Stork Information Centre Vetschau / Spree Forest.

The banding will be done again by Mrs. Catherine Illig from Luckau. The lifting technique is the utility of enviaM. Interested citizens and guests of the Spreewald are cordially invited to experience the action directly at the White Stork Information Centre in Lower Lusatia Vetschau / Spree Forest. On the Internet, the ringing will be broadcast live. Stork's friends often worry that the youngs could jump out of the nest while banding or the young storks could be left by th adult storks. All this is not to be feared in the normal case.

A foreign Stork landed in the nest and attcked the chicks.
They played "dead", that is what they do in dangerous situations.

About 30 minutes later Cico came to feed the chicks and when he was ready, also Luna came with breakfast and everything was o.k. again.

At 11 am Luna brought water up to the chicks.

That was a terrible attack.

I do realize Mother Nature knows best for these cranes.. it is still sad to see those two had to plunge to death. Too bad there is drought there. Yes, those two remaining are very fat and healthy. I am happy for them. they are growing up too fast.

Good night



It is not a quiet night, a thunderstorm hits Vetschau
