In Rust in Burgenland, the first stork chicks have hatched from their eggs. Some nests were discovered with three young birds visible, and in one nest, even four chicks were reported.
In the coming one to two weeks, all nests will be monitored from the church tower in Rust with binoculars to determine the exact number of young storks. A total of 24 breeding pairs have been recorded this year, according to Igor Smrtnik from the Stork Association to APA.
Ideal Conditions for Stork Chicks in Rust
The temperatures are currently a bit cooler, but not too wet. The stork chicks and their parents thus find good conditions. Another nest was occupied by a pair a few days ago, but whether there will be offspring here is still uncertain. Last year, 86 storks were born in Rust - a record number. It is unlikely to be as many this year, but around 70 are expected.
