Our #storks have left #Biederitz a few weeks ago, so here's one of the last shots I got from the #nest closest to me, when they were doing flight drills with their teenagers

Mijn oma's ' ooievaartje ', zo werd 't genoemd, het insigne voor een baker ofwel kraamzuster
Mijn oma was dus voor WOII kraamzuster
Ik heb dit niet tijdig geweten om daarover met haar te kunnen praten, vragen kunnen stellen over haar ervaringen en waarom ze dit later niet meer deed
Ik heb het intuïtief gepakt toen ze overleden was, als aandenken

My grandmother's stork, a badge for midwives
My grandmother was a midwife pre-WWII
Never had the opportunity to talk about it, ask her how it was back then, why she didn't do it anymore later in life
I took it intuitivly when she had passed away, a remembrance

A Wood Stork is visiting Colorado! The last time one was sighted here was in 1934. https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/us/rare-tropical-bird-last-seen-in-colorado-91-years-ago-is-hanging-out-in-metro-denver/ar-AA1KZqWS #stork

We have visited Germany many times over the past 40 years. We have never seen so many storks as we have this year. It's exciting seeing them becoming more common - like this group near Donaueschingen. #photography #germany #birds #stork
