Wonderful series of shots!
Not a problem (or a blessing!) we get in England although I understand that we did get them up until the 'Mini Ice Age' of the 16 the 17th centuries when they went away and apparently only came back in the past decade or so in very limited numbers - something I recall reading a while ago and my memory could be at fault, so please don't quote me!
according to rewildingbrittain.org, no breeding occurred since 1416. There are a few obvious April 1 news stories around that claim first stork nest since centuries in sundry odd places...
However wild Storks are easy to bring back from the brink and re-settle places where they once lived as long conditions their became suitable again. Renaturating marshes for the comeback of other critters attracts them. Just wait and see as numbers in mainland europe raise and support your marsh renaturating projects no matter at what species benefit it is geared.... ;o)
At the back of my mind I seem to recall having heard about that date before. Don't know where I got my info from! Pleased to be put right!
