White Stork nest in Poland in Internet – “Close to Storks” project

The „Close to Storks” project, based on the White Stork’s nest observation by Internet, is conducted since March 2006 by the South Wielkopolska Group of Polish Society for the Protection of Birds – BirdLife International partner in Poland. Monitored nest is located in Przygodzice village (51.35 N, 17.49 E) in Wielkopolska region, near the border of „Barycz Valley” Landscape Park and Special Protected Area of Natura 2000 European ecological network.
The aim of the project is show to the public the nesting period of the White Stork - species which is a non-formal sign of Poland (Polish population - about 40.000 breeding pairs - represents 20% of the total world population). The project’s title means not only technical possibility of non-stop, close monitoring of the nest, but also establishing the emotional relation of the observers with the storks.
The camera has absolutely no influence for the stork’s behaviour and does not interrupt their life. In 2006-2009 seasons the storks laid 5 eggs, in 2006-2008 - 3, 2 and 4 nestlings left the nest.
Online transmission is realized in several options to choose from according to observers’ needs and technical possibilities. Transmission with the view refreshed every 7 seconds is available on www.bociany.ec.pl, on www.bociany.ittv.pl – the streaming view (25 frames per second), and also the streaming view for mobile phones (20 frames per second) is accessible.
The number of transmission viewers was estimated for 1.5, 3 and 5 millions in 2006-2008, coming from more than 100 countries each year. Besides Poland, the biggest numbers were from: United Kingdom, Germany and France from Europe; USA, China and from the rest of the world.
On 2nd June 2008 the www.bociany.ec.pl site came first in worldwide www.birdingtop500.com ranking, now is on fifth position. Media also show their great interest in the project. Since 2006 summer „Close to Storks” Meeting is organized, and since 2007 the discussion forum site www.bocianyzprzygodzic.pun.pl is active, with a part in English also.
Now everybody can observe five freshly hatched (between 15th and 20th May) nestlings and their feeding by earthworms by the parents.

这个是来自波兰一个名叫"亲亲白鹳" (Close to Storks) 项目的消息.

2006年3月波兰保护鸟类协会 (国际鸟盟波兰伙伴)的一个小组 (South Wielkopolska Group) 于 Wielkopolska 地区的一条村庄里发现了白鹳 (全波兰约有40,000对繁殖, 占全球数量的20%)的巢, 并安装了摄录机, 24小时监察鸟巢的情况, 大家可以在 www.bociany.ec.pl 或 www.bociany.ittv.pl 观看鸟巢的实时情况. 除此之外, 他们亦建立了一个讨论区: www.bocianyzprzygodzic.pun.pl (有部份英文)

摄录机对鸟巢影响甚低, 在2006至2009年里, 白鹳每年产5只只, 06, 07及08年分别有3只, 2只及4只幼鸟出巢. 这个网上观察点很受欢迎, 在2008年已有500万人次观看, 而中国是其中一个最多人看的国家.

项目的名字除了说明人们可以通过摄录机近距离观察白鹳外, 还希望令人们在心灵上亲亲白鹳, 爱护它们.

哈哈~~ 我一直在观察~~ 刚才成鸟站了起来, 然后见到所有的BB 呵~~~~ 很可爱!!

As I write up - the last days was difficult for our nest. If somebody from you was looking live www.bociany.ec.pl  at Monday (1 VI 2009), you can know how it was.
On the 1st June, was very close to happen next big problem in our nest, which, fortunately, had been avoided. Late afternoon, at 17:25, mum brought to the nest a long, thin patch of skin. Two chicks tried to eat the skin strip, each from the other end. None of them could take the remaining part from the other, or to cough up the part that was stuck in his throat. In this way, the chicks were joined together for more than two and a half hours and there existed a serious threat of suffocation.

Pawel Dolata, the project coordinator  and Wojtek Kaźmierczak, helped by the firefighters with their fire engine equipped with lift, carried out very rapid rescue action at 20:00. Pawel and Wojtek entered into the nest and two chicks got relief from the unfortunate food. They also have removed the dead chick from the nest.

You can read (and see) more about here at link:  http://www.bocianyzprzygodzic.pu ... hp?pid=16244#p16244

Down is some photos from that evening (photos by Eva Stets).

在1/6/09下午17:25, 白鹳妈妈把一条皮带回鸟巢里, 其中两只幼鸟尝试把它吃掉, 各自从两端开始吃。结果牠们 都无法吃到最后一部分, 还卡住了喉咙接近两个小时, 面对窒息的危险。于是Pawel Dolata寻找消防员的协助, 于晚上20:00拯救了这两只小白鹳。大家可以在此网站浏览详情: http://www.bocianyzprzygodzic.pu ... hp?pid=16244#p16244

Hi!

The time is going so quickly and now our storks change so much from the small storks one moth ago.
Few days before our Naming Contest was ended and we choose the names for them.
Three names that have received the largest number of votes, from among ten names selected by the project team, are:

Zosia,  Barycz,  Czwartak

- Zosia (Zofia) is traditional Polish name for girl, Zofia's day is 15th May, when first two small was hatched.

- Barycz is the name of the river (tributary to Oder) near Przygodzice, their wet meadows are feeding our stork. Barycz Valley is important Bird Area and Special Protected Area of Natura2000 ecological network.

- Czwartak means the fourth nestling (according to the time of birth from all 5 hatched), but it was also the name for very brave and famous soldiers of 4th Infantry Regiment during November Uprising against tsar's Russia in 1830-1831.


We hope at Saturday 27 VI 2009, about 12.00 (time in Poland) to ring and measure our storks (depend the weather may be on Sunday).

So we invite you to see it on-line in : http://www.bociany.ec.pl page.

我就在爱沙尼亚西部一个国际重要湿地的保护站，我住的房子前面就有一个白鹳的繁殖台。我看到两个白鹳宝宝，应该比波兰的大了。刚才出门遛弯，一只白鹳就在门前的草地散步，超级悠闲

Hi, everyone, once more!
  
Our three young storks: Zosia, Barycz, and Czwartak, were ringed on 27 VI 2009. The ringing action started shortly after 12 AM (CET). It could be carried thanks to the help of local volunteer fire-fighting unit, which agreed to share their car (together with the crew) with the special “crane”. However, there was a danger that the fire engine may be mired down in the wet meadow ground, because for many days there were heavy rains in Poland. But, fortunately, everything went smoothly.

The project coordinator, Pawel T. Dolata, who is also the professional bird ringer, approached to the nest on the crane and took down all storklets. Just before that, the parent gone on the nearby roof and from there watched the event.

On the ground storks were weighed, measured (beaks and wings), and then black-white rings, ELSA type, were attached to their legs over knees. Ringing has been done on the ground under the nest, because it is safer for young storks, and it is much easier to check if any dangerous things there are in the nest - strings, fishing line, etc. When all these operations were completed, storklets had been taken to the nest again, and for some time they still played to be "dead". The action lasted 31 minutes and after next 25 minutes adult stork joined her children.

More photos you can see here (page 1 and 2): http://www.bocianyzprzygodzic.pu ... hp?pid=17632#p17632
  
To see a short videos from the how it was you can click:  here


From several days all three storklets actively exercise their wings preparing for their first flights. Time passes quickly and soon they begin to fly, and in the first decade of August they leave the nest to fly to Africa.

Welcome to watch them with us on http://www.bociany.ec.pl/ !

Best regards

Strange White stork in our nest   www.bociany.ec.pl

Hi!

The last two nights (14/15 and 15/16 July) we have very strange and interesting situation – one adult, alien stork spent these nights on the monitored nest in Przygodzice, together with 3 our nestlings, when both their adults stayed all the nights on the neighbouring chimney, their normal summer roosting place. In both mornings alien stork flow away from the nest in early morning, polish time (15.7 on 4.12 am, 16.7 on 4.40 am), after attacks of young and adult storks.

According to the ELSA type ornithological ring number (resighted by the telescope this morning by Janina Bartuzi, Wojtek Kaźmierczak and me), we know that alien stork is an adult stork called „Aggressor” with interesting story – it unsuccessfully attacked our nest in April, after the beatting by one of our adults  and falling on the roof under the nest was injured in the breast and wing. After veterinary consultation by Vet. Dr Stanisław Kempa and a first trying of releasing, „Aggressor” spend two weeks of rehabilitation on the garden od Dr Kempa in Ostrów Wielkopolski town (ca 8 km N from Przygodzice), with two other storks unable to fly. Dr Kempa is delivering them the food, but they are free in the garden. „Aggressor” flow away itself from the garden on 15th May.

As we see, he return to Przygodzice nest as the „Guest” more than „Aggressor” now

Let's observe our nest this and the next nights, maybe Guest/Aggressor will come to the nest too!

Best regards

Coordinator of „Close to Storks” PwG OTOP project


Few more words to last post up:

The Aggressor don't come the last two nights to our nest, so as you can see - the storks are quite. We cannot to know if the strange stork will come back again (but it is possible).

Down is some photos how they try to throw the strange, adult stork. It was at 16 VII early morning.
You can see also the action in short video here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccBWnqEJaCw

By the way - our youngs is ready to fly. They are now in 10 week from the day when first was hatched. So is good to try to see them, may be you will have the luck to see the first fly of them.

Best regards
Eva Stets
