White Stork Family Nest

A Living White Stork Nest

This camera looks directly onto an active white stork nest, a vast platform of branches built up over many seasons. Adult storks and their growing chicks occupy the nest, where viewers can watch feeding, preening and wing-stretching as the young birds develop into fledglings.

The Village of Milín

The nest overlooks Milín, a small municipality in the Příbram District of Central Bohemia. Its red-roofed houses, gardens and quiet lanes spread out below the camera, a classic image of rural Czech life.

Bohemian Countryside

Beyond the village roll the gentle hills, meadows and woodlands typical of the Bohemian interior. A road threads through the landscape and patches of forest mark the horizon, giving the storks ample foraging grounds within easy flight of the nest.

About White Storks

The white stork (Ciconia ciconia) is one of Europe's most beloved birds, famous for nesting on rooftops, chimneys and poles close to people. Each pair returns to raise its young before the long migration to Africa, making nests like this one a cherished seasonal sight across the Czech countryside.
