Common nest

The white stork is a favorite bird in Poland. It is believed that it brings happiness and children . Its perennial nests are very heavy and cause a lot of damage. That is why special platforms are built on poles where the nest is safe. Storks eagerly share their nest with sparrows that inhabit the lower parts of the nest.

It's good that the power company(ies) decided to build a little extra platform to their poles to accommodate these birds who are very hospitable.
