Derbyshire Wildlife Trust has announced an ambitious new project to reintroduce white storks and establish a healthy breeding population in the Midlands, more than 600 years after they vanished from the region.

What a patriotic stork!
#WhiteStorks are known to bring human-made items to their nests (often with negative consequences – see our paper: tinyurl.com/58rupn7t).
But this one brought a Portuguese flag! These chicks will get their first geography lesson as soon as they hatch!

Our local stork colony has started to return from migration a couple of weeks earlier than usual. In 1974 there were just 9 breeding couples in Alsace (11 in the whole of France!) but after breeding/feeding programmes we now have thriving autonomous migratory colonies. #Alsace

Los #Barruecos, in Malpartida de Cáceres ( #Extremadura, #Spain), is a stunning natural monument of granite formations, ponds once used for wool washing, and rich wildlife ( #whitestorks, #grebes and #cormorants). Declared a natural monument in 1996 by the Junta de Extremadura

Wow!: Denmark records highest number of white stork nestlings in decades. ALI WITHERS, of Reuters, reports from Copenhagen on the return of white storks to the Scandinavian nation… @sightmagazine.bsky.social #Wow #Denmark #whitestorks #StorksDenmark #HansSkov

Aerial view of a white stork nest in Portugal with four chicks sitting in the middle of it, surrounded by discarded plastic, rope and baler twine which has been used to build the nest.
The harmful impact of discarded plastic materials on young birds has been revealed in a new UEA study – which found that chicks are dying after becoming entangled in synthetic fibres used to build their nests. 🪹

Imagine that you’re a parent of three infants and your babies are swinging around long, sharp blades trying to entice you to feed them! White storks do this everyday! #birds #birdwatching #nature

Nesting Stork on a pole
Stork in her nest with her fledglings
Spotted white storks nesting on tall poles at Venta del Caldero, near Plasencia. These artificial nesting platforms are a win for bird conservation efforts. Just 17 days on, the fledglings are growing fast. Nature thrives when we lend a hand. #vanlife #whitestorks #birds

Our baby #WhiteStorks are growing fast! We use a telecopic pole with a camera to monitor the storks' nest and assess breeding success!

Every year, fewer #WhiteStorks cross the Straits of Gibraltar on their annual migratory journey. In this paper, we unveil the mechanisms driving the recent and rapid loss of their migratory behaviour.

So happy to share our paper on how #WhiteStorks are changing their migratory behaviour. Check it here:

A large proportion of the white storks in southern Europe no longer migrate. Our new paper examined the mechanims behind the loss in migratory behavious with several methods including tracking data besjournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.... #ornithology #whitestorks #animalmigration

In Portugal, it's been raining almost continously for the past few weeks - very unusual for this time of the year! And as our poor #WhiteStorks are battling the storms, we are struggling to reach their nests without snorkels and flippers! :)
The breeding season of #WhiteStorks has already begun, so it's time for the seasonal migration of our team to Southern Portugal to study these amazing birds!
Exciting to have ITV Meridian visit the storks at @kneppwilding.bsky.social! 🎥
Check out their feature on the White Stork Project⬇️

Nest-building, bonding, and mating are in full swing for the storks at @kneppwilding.bsky.social
Ania & Bartek are busy prepping their nest— working together, both birds will bring materials.
Here, Bartek hauls hay from nearby stables. No eggs yet, but watch this space!
#WhiteStorks #Rewilding
CHEEKY. You leave your nest for 20 seconds and look who moves in.
(Didn't take Ania and Bartek long to reclaim their nest.)

Die Beute war wohl eine Wanderratte... wie und wo konnte dann der Papa-Storch ihn finden und fangen? #birds #WhiteStorks #nature
Frankfurter Storchennachwuchs Tag 61 (18.06) (1)
Heute gab es einen großen Futterkampf zwischen den Jungstörchen. Papa-Storch brachte eine Beute ins Nest, die einen langen Streit ausgelöst hat.
Aber eh.. was kann DAS sein? ... Eine Wanderratte? #birds #nature #WhiteStorks
Almost three years after acceptance here it finally is in Science in Context, my article on postwar #ornithology, animal representations and international science diplomacy doi.org/10.1017/S026... thread to follow #envhist #histsci #movinganimals #whitestorks
🧪 3 open #PhD positions on the effects of anthropogenic food on #whitestorks. Come work with us @MarcinTobolka @Valeria_Marasco and myself to 1) study survival & fitness in Poznan 2) foraging & migration in Konstanz and 3) metabolic & physiological changes in Vienna
