June 5, 2023,Storchentour in Bergenhusen 2023.06.05.

A birthday visit left me a little time to drive to Bergenhusen, the stork village.
On the "Lüttensee Habitat of the Storks" circular route there are many display boards to learn interesting facts about the stork.
I can highly recommend it, I was able to observe many storks and young storks. Was great!!!
