I don't think so
It seems they missed one another




And did it again.

Well, they mate at least 3 more times and now Kati went to the other nest. Let's hope that she doesn't decide to lay the eggs there

Looks like they are both settling in for the night.  Karl is in the new nest, and Kati hopped down into the old nest.  She is barely visible in the bottom right corner.

It seems that they don't want to settle. She returned to the new nest...
Will they be mating all night long? They really seem to have missed each other

First egg

It took time!

There is a second egg this morning, but I could not get a good screen shot.

Finally

Cool! Yesterday I tried to see but it was raining a lot so I didn't saw a thing... Now they are both on the nest

Yes!!!! They showed the eggs

It's difficult to understand if there is a 3rd egg
Sometimes it seems but with the branches and the shadows...

Well, in Lk they have a pic where the 3 eggs are visible

and i have seen lots of frog's pic's on fb......will there 3 or 5 egg?

Frog's pic's? On the BS nest?
It would be good to have only 3 eggs... in the end they kill the others :(

I vote for only three eggs -- the fate of the weaker chicks is always very troubling.

Maybe we can send them a message?

And mate cleaning

Only 4 eggs
It seems that they are getting wiser...

The egg in the back is starting to hatch.  It is making a lot of noise.

32 days! Just in time

The shell is tossed aside, but the branches in the front block the little storklet.

And I just arrived and now it's too dark

Finally I could see the 2
