Empty Nest Syndrome

It can no longer be hidden at this time of year.

Whether it is kind of hidden in the twigs and branches of the barren trees

or openly displayed on top of poles and trunks.

And this particular nest has been empty for years and years and years. When I was little it was used by storks, then there were fewer and the nest stayed empty. Now their numbers are increasing and we have a sizable number returning every spring but they never took again to the nest up on the old tower, nowadays they live in the trees in the plain, closer to their food sources.

One Word Sunday: Empty.

I’m sorry your storks have moved out of town, but at least you have them. I always get excited by storks’ nests when I travel to areas they like too.

Oh, what a shame. I’m glad they are on the increase nearby but storks on towers are wonderful to see. For me, they are a clear sign of being on holiday.
