					<description><![CDATA[In reply to &lt;a href=&quot;https://naturechat.org/black-stork-cam-in-estonia-2/comment-page-2/#comment-237581&quot;&gt;One&lt;/a&gt;.

&lt;i&gt;&lt;b&gt;Flashback &lt;/b&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;i&gt;(from Forum 2022 , text and videos by LizNm)
Without Jan, Janika could not raise the chicks. It was impossible for her, and all observers knew it. Urmas decided to intervene and try to save the chicks. As first he was feeding them at the nest using a decoy stork. But that wasn&#x27;t a long-term solution. They decided to get the chicks from the nest.&lt;/i&gt; &lt;a href=&quot;https://youtu.be/BVoKyU4uAto&quot;&gt;https://youtu.be/BVoKyU4uAto&lt;/a&gt; 
&lt;i&gt;Bonus Part II~Hopitalization of the remaining chicks~5. June -27. June

The chicks developed very well in the clinic. Contact with humans was limited to a few exceptions, so they could not get used to humans. This was important for their continued life in the wilderness if the project is successful. No one knew what was going to happen because it had never been done before.
Dr Madis Leivits built them a nest that matched the natural nest in the forest.
A plastic tube with an artificial plastic head in the shape of a black stork was made. Dr Leivits called him Toru (in english Pipe)
A decoy stork was screwed to the edge of the nest so the chicks always had visual contact with the &#034;Mom&#034;. They interacted with this stork as if it were actually their Mom. They learned a few things, like taking fish out of &#034;Dad&#x27;s&#034; beak.
BTW: They got rings to distinguish them. The all hatched on the same day!
on June 27 the clinic camera went off &lt;/i&gt;

					<description><![CDATA[This nest is a mystery. First, because the stream keeps getting interrupted...and quite often. Second, because it’s not entirely clear how many eggs have been laid. In this picture, it looks like there are five. Let’s wait and see! https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/5362e26c1312173d0243c8d95697ea6e11af52f80d7ec47f32ca777a23aa3456.png]]></description>
