- Zica is sitting on the nest bowl and time to time she stand up and is aerating the nest bowl, she is moving the nest material preens herself
- she is active while sitting too,mostly she s collecting the soft nest material to her body
- storklets are chirping time to time

Re: SPAIN - Tajo
- storklets time to time very loudly are asking for food, I have no idea where is the problem
- adult storks are not yet succeeding in alternating more frequently and feeding storklets - these are too long intervals at this age according to the literature and my observations
- little one in the front (storklet touched Zica's bill); her stomach is empty - she is pooping time to time one little drop
