Storks

The German Stork route or Deutsche Storchenstrasse is also a scenic route through north Germany. The route travels around Schleswig-Holstein, Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania, Brandenburg, Saxony-Anhalt, and Lower Saxony centering around the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve Elbe River Landscape.

Another interesting link if you like Storks – is the Stork village in Bergenhusen where you may catch them soapbox racing.

Until then – you can watch the young storks teetering on the edge of  their huge nest in this Storkcam in another German village further south – Gogglingen. They are already flying and out of their nest – but still living there there until September.

Have just watched the four storks crash land into their nest at the same time – and it looked a little scary.

Its a long way down.
