A pair of storks will nest in safetly in Sîntu, Mureș County
Last year a tragedy ocurred in Sîntu, Mureș County. A summer storm devastated the entire area and the nest took fire after being hit by a lightning. At the end of the summer, the birds started to construct a nest on a nearby pole, kind of signaling us where they want their new home. Than, they started the long journey to Africa.

The device was mounted recently, just in time for the storks to find a home at their return. We thank all those that helped the story to have a happy end. (more…)
