Storks

They come with the Spring and stay for the Summer. When you leave the city, you can spot their distinctive silhouettes flying overhead or their round white heads sticking up over the walls of nests. Storks reuse the same nests year after year so they become local landmarks – usually on top of electricity poles or chimneys of empty buildings. Just outside the city limits on the main highway East there are two – one in use, one abandoned – that are nestled in the crooks of the streetlights in the central reservation. They have apparently been there for at least a decade.
