It is not uncommon to see them doing acrobatics in order to reach the nests, or leave them, energetically deploying their almost two-metre wingspan
Their nests, gems of natural engineering, can weigh from 30 to 600 kilos
storks have established a unique colony well worth visiting. On the electricity or telephone pylons they build their majestic nest, bona fide works of natural engineering that can weigh from 30 to 600 kilos. It is not uncommon to see them doing acrobatics in order to reach the nests, or leave them, energetically deploying their almost two-metre wingspan and communicating with each other with their characteristic bill clapping, or incubating their clutches of three or four eggs, which each pair nurses every year in the same nest, in the same place.
