Oh yes ! @ProjectStork are now livestreaming a nest from Knepp– this is the pairs 5th breeding attempt together and they are now on three eggs . . . watch 24/7 to catch all the action at https://t.co/X8MSe38CZ3
We're delighted to be taking part in the The Big Give's #Greenmatchfund

Our first egg on the live camera at Knepp Wilding hatched this morning! Parent storks Ania and Bartek have been keeping the new chick and remaining eggs safe and warm today. Watch them live on our YouTube channel: https://t.co/astMLO6el9
So excited to share our brand new live camera on one of the stork nests at Knepp. Just in time for Mother's Day, the first egg was laid last night! https://t.co/wagORZBBGN
This breeding season, we're hoping to share the wonders of stork development. Help us reach our £4000 goal for a live camera at Knepp! Every donation counts. https://t.co/aMrziTUrzY
We are excited to introduce our new Migration Map, crafted by ACE Nature. Check out the incredible journeys of satellite-tagged birds routes from southern England to North Africa - https://t.co/b9vL2LBNUC
Fantastic day at Knepp with some amazing volunteers. Huge efforts in coppicing for stork nesting material which is especially crucial for our non-flying storks in the predator-proof enclosure. Fingers crossed for a successful breeding season and huge thanks to all involved
Many of our storks have now migrated but some still remain in Sussex, a small group has been seen foraging in fields around the River Rother recently.
Thanks to everyone for ongoing sightings and wonderful photographs! 📷Thanks to Alastair Lloyd
Thank you to everyone who has submitted a sighting recently. We have had several reports of a group of around 30 storks foraging in fields around Sandwich, Kent, including 3 of our satellite tagged young from this year.
It's been a fantastic season for the storks and we are looking forward to updating everyone on progress. We have had 26 wild chicks fledge at Knepp, 33 juveniles from the Cotswold Wildlife Park released at Knepp and 8 satellite tags deployed on the young. Updates to follow!
We are excited to be welcoming Laura to the team as the new White Stork Project Officer. The role will involve managing the husbandry tasks, working with the fantastic stork volunteer team and coordinating education and outreach for the project.
Join us on an aerial journey over some of the stork nests at Knepp, giving us a respectable bird’s-eye view of the contents of the nests across the rewilding project.
Collecting data through the season helps document breeding activity and informs us of nest success rates.
We are excited to share the latest update from Knepp, where we have 19 eggs in 7 nests so far! 🪺
We'll continue to monitor these throughout the breeding season but you can help us fund more #satellite tags to help us #research their #migration & survival at the link below:
Can you help us track the white #stork migration?
Help us raise £3,000 before May to cover cost of satellite tags. These will collect crucial data on the migration routes of juveniles released from @KneppWilding as part of @ProjectStork https://t.co/AjOdSIYWJu
