Switzerland Reuss plain

Please log in or sign up for free to see the GPS coordinates & weather for this photo spot

There is a big stork population along the river Reuss between Mühlau and Bremgarten. While some stay during winter, most of the birds arrive in early spring and build or repair their nests on top of various telephone poles. Their clattering announces the arrival of spring and they make great photo subjects at full moon.
