Black Storks / Schwarzstoerche / Ciconia Nigra

Alas they would not settle anywhere near us as they did fly by low and slow. They are not only less easy detectable from afar than White Storks and rarer at that, they are also shy. They like to nest in extended wetlands in a tree by a clearing that get not disturbed with human activity and when they forage, they keep their distance too if possible. / Leider wollten sie nicht in unserer Naehe landen obwohl sie niedrig und landsam vorbeizogen. Man kann sie nicht so einfach wie Weisstoerche von weiten erkennen, und sie sind viel seltener, dazu sind sie noch sehr scheu. Sie leben gerne in sehr grossen Auwaeldern, wahlen einen Baum in einer unzugaenglichen Lichtung als Brutplatz, und wenn sie auf die Jagd gehen, landen sie eher ungern wo Menschen sichtbar sind.
