Storks are on duty in their nests for their newly hatched babies

Storks, which nest in areas close to wetlands where migratory birds stay in Kayseri, have been among the indispensable guests of the residents of Hürmetçi District for many years. Every year, as the weather warms up, storks settle in their nests built on electric poles and roofs at the foot of Mount Erciyes.

Storks keep watch for eggs in their nests on electric poles, fly in turns to look for food, and then return to their nests. This year, as every year, storks are experiencing the rush of raising and raising their new babies, who have just joined their families, while the newly hatched chicks disperse the silence of the neighborhood with the sound they make. Storks teach their babies to fly, which they raise for about 6 months, and then leave the neighborhood to migrate to warmer regions.
