The first photo, taken in 1997, shows two storks in a storknest on a chimney near Kiidjärv in Põlvamaa (south-eastern Estonia). In later years, the nest must have shifted slightly due to storms as closer observation shows it is tilting to one side. This might explain why there were no storks in the nest in 2007. As I started digitizing my older analog photos in 2007 and 2008 I was happy to rediscover that I still had the photo from 1997 with the storks in the nest.
