Subspecies: ciconia Veberöd. Adult. One of the individuals from the introduction program. Unfortunately birds from the non-migrating population from Algeria were chosen, so these birds stay put all year depending on food from the breeding station. |

Banded with black text on orange on left leg: M138. Metal band on right leg. Idyllic, almost exotic, to see an occupied storks nest, though, the Swedish birds are still mostly part of the re-introduction program like this one. The iPhone GPS was the culprit, leading us far off course, and then we landed here. Elin Elmsted in photo. Banded |

First in many years for me on the island. Spotted by Oscar, OPG, while I was talking to Finn. The bird is banded with metal band on the left tibia, but apparently not with the pattern they use in the Swedish Stork Project, while the bird might be of southern origin. |
