Stork monitoring plan
or what questions can be answered when monitoring a stork nest online?

1, When and how long does the stork stay in the nest (questions that can be answered by browsing the time-lapse images of the camera)
- Does it fly out at night?
- How many times a day does it fly out?
- How long does it stay away after each flight?
- How long is the time between two flights?
- Diagram a day on an axis for a stork. Divide the horizontal axis into 24 parts corresponding to the hours of the day and draw in the periods spent on the nest with a thick marker. Mark the sunrise and sunset. 

2, Observing the night roost
- In what position do you keep your head and beak?
- Is it sitting or standing?
- If standing, on how many legs?

3, Observe the fledging
- Knowing that the camera in Vlaha faces north, in which direction does it usually fly out? 

4, Observation of nest landings
- Does it arrive from the direction it flies out?
- Does it carry anything in its beak?
- Does it have any homecoming rites?

5, Observation of nest maintenance
- What is the nest made of? (twigs, hay, cornhusk, etc.)
- Where and how do they place the twigs? (circular? radial? back and forth?)
- Where do they put the hay and soft matter?

6, Observation of staking
- When do you usually bill-clatter?
- What movements does it make when it is bill-clattering(how does it hold its head? what does it do with its wings? what does it do with its beak?)

7, Observation of defecation 
- Does it take care of the hygiene of the nest?
- Where does it defecate?
- What movements does it make before it does?

8, Observation of pair life (after the pair has arrived)
- Do they leave the nest together or separately?
- How do they greet each other when they return to the nest?

9, Observation of mating
- How often do they mate?

10, Observing the laying of eggs
- Note the date of laying of each new egg
- How often are new eggs deposited in the nest?
- Plot the laying of eggs on a diagram (leave room to extend the axis so that you can mark the time of hatching and the time of hatching of the chicks) 

11, Observing the hatching
- How many eggs were in the nest when the stork started to hatch?
- Do they both cluck?
- Do they move the eggs?
- Draw in the period of clutching with a thick marker on the axis asked for in the previous point

12, Observing the hatching of the chicks
- After after how many days of clutching do the chicks hatch?
- Mark the date of hatching of the chicks on the previously drawn axis
- Draw conclusions

13, Observation of the chicks
- What colour are they?
- What colour is their beak?
- How do they move?

14, Observe how baby storks are fed
- How often are they fed?
- What food do the big storks bring them?
- How is their feeding done?

15, Observing the growth of the baby storks
- When do their first black feathers appear?
- Do you see any differences in growth between the chicks?
- When do they get up on their feet?
�	When do they start to try out their wings?

16, Observing the fledging of young storks
- When do they first leave the nest?
- Do they still get food from the adult storks afterwards?
- If so, when do the young stop being fed?
- For how long do they still return to the nest?

17, Observing the migration at the end of summer
- Do all the storks leave at the same time?
- When do they leave?
