Yaren the Stork's Nest

A Living Symbol of Eskikaraağaç

Perched on a village rooftop, Yaren is one of the world's most famous white storks, a symbol of the friendship between people and wildlife that has drawn admirers from across Turkey and beyond. The camera frames the nest, its occupants, and the broad expanse of the lake behind them.

The Shores of Lake Uluabat

Set on the northern edge of Lake Uluabat, a shallow, reed-fringed Ramsar wetland, the nest overlooks one of Anatolia's richest bird habitats. The still, silvery water forms a serene backdrop to the birds' comings and goings.

A Devoted Stork Family

Each breeding season the pair raise their chicks in full view of the lens, feeding, preening, and standing guard over the nest. The feed captures the quiet rhythms of a wild family at home.

Streamed by the Municipality

Operated by Karacabey Municipality with a dedicated camera system, the broadcast lets viewers everywhere share in the life of Yaren and her offspring while respecting the birds' undisturbed natural behaviour.
