Beautiful video. I love also that both are clattering their beaks.

Ik kwam deze tegen. Wat een leuke film. Leuk dat geklepper als ze elkaar begroeten. Fijne (warme) dag!

After failing to mate twice, the male got angry, did not want more courtship, and expelled the female! Thanks, it's a great video.

Geweldig dat geklepper. Een begroeting zeer uitbundig, alsof ze elkaar in jaren niet gezien hebben. Mooi geflmd.

Beautifully shot. Would you be okay with me using a snippet of this video for my private use? I won't repost on youtube or any other social platform. I'm doing a bird project and like to show friends on zoom (via share screen, I don't send anything). Would you be okay with that?

Great capture of the bonding and courtship.

I love those clapping, big - winged, lovely, beautiful storks. I hope they'll be my pet. Ahh, they're mute, but pretty.

This is awesome. Such a wonderfully choreographed act. The male just needs to work on his mounting technique. It's pretty clumsy, but I guess it must be kind of tricky with those long legs.

Hi Birdfun,

I work on a TV nature program for a danish TV channel, and looking for videos a the white storks and will hear you that if it's okay to use "White stork courtship" in one of our programs? We will of course mention you in the credits.
Best Wishes,
Naja

Hello   Super video and beautiful birds  brother 💯like 👍 Thanks for sharing ❤🕊 Love from Germany to all animals fanciers ❤

The male's difficulty mounting reminds me of male ducks trying to climb aboard even as the female's body sinks underwater from his weight. There might be fewer humans if accomplishing the act was that tricky for us. 😉

Prachtig filmpje ik hou van dat geklepper

[nikolled]

Are these the same storks that bring newborns to our homes? 🤔😉
