Even the photo was taken in Switzerland, this guy looks like being proud to wear the Prussian colors.

good catch. The perspective is amazing and so it is a breathtaking view!

 

Thanks to you and all comments & clicks.

 

This perspective has just been the only chance to get it with 90mm ;-) I see my only chance in "trapping", means distance, aperture and time are preset. Wait. Wait. ... 2-3 shots when the bird leaves the nest.

 

2h waiting. 2 Minutes shooting. 1h postprocessing (wondering wheter colored or b/w - the beak made the color).

Stunning view. It appears to be banded on its left leg.

Paul, thx for all your detailed comments! This encourages me to continue. Yes, it is banded, and I did not want to retouch. I guess in Central Europe 90% of all storks are more or less "banded" to civilization (prepared nests, feeding in winter). Real independant can be seen in the east only.
