Nesting storks in Zwin
A pair of storks preparing their nest in Zwin, Belgium. This photo was taken from a lookout tower, which brings visitors to the park eye-level with the nesting storks. The Zwin Nature Reserve in Belgium is an important nesting area for storks. A few stay year-round, but most migrate south from August through February.
