Jabiru Stork Nest

Jabiru stork babies are not very cute.

image

They’re actually pretty ugly.

image

But don’t tell the mom that.

image

She’s almost as tall as us and has a big beak.

image

In the morning they brought sticks up to fix the nest.


image

The adults gather sticks on the ground.

image

And carry big beaks full up to the nest.

image

And the babies helped arrange them in the nest.

image

So the babies are pretty clever even if they aren’t pretty.

image

There are four babies in the nest.

image

Which makes for a pretty big pile of bird.

image

The nest is very high up in the air.

image

But they come back to the same nest every year, so they’ve built a tower up so you can see inside.

image

Both the tower and the tree are now held up by wires.

image

The babies are quite big.

image

And will be able to fly soon.
