Here is the only native (North) American stork, the Wood Stork.
Southwest Florida, Gulf Coast... day before Thanksgiving, and likely thankful not to be a turkey.

This star is associated with a strong sense of tradition and a realistic approach to starting new businesses.
Monsters, humans, and gods are the three types of #Nakshatras. A human #nakshatra is #UttaraAshadha. In general, members of this group are ambitious and self-driven.
According to Vedic astrological principles, the #Uttarashada nakshatra is the twenty-first of the twenty-seven nakshatras. The #Sun is the lord or ruling planet of this nakshatra. It extends from the constellation of Sagittarius to the constellation of Capricorn. The nakshatra is represented as an elephant tusk or a little bed.
The first pada falls under the Jupiter-ruled sign of Sagittarius. If the Sun, Jupiter, and Mars are connected with good houses, the person has an incomparable personality.
The last three Pada come under the Capricorn sign, which is controlled by Saturn. They are sincere and will take on any project with zeal and see it through to completion. They do not deceive anyone, and their natural honesty is another personality feature that is clearly observed and quite charming.
The first pada of the Uttarashada Nakshatra is located in the Sagittarius Navamsa, which is ruled by Jupiter. This pada is the beginning of the Uttarashada Nakshatra. Developing one’s own sense of ethics and self-assurance will be the primary focus here. A significant amount of new information will be learned.
Uttarashada Nakshatra 2nd Pada: The Capricorn Navmansa is the second pada of Uttarashada Nakshatra. The thoughts, aspirations, and plans that people have formed in order to accomplish their aims are in the spotlight here.
The third pada of the Uttarashadha Nakshatra falls in the Aquarius Zodiac sign Navamsa, which is controlled by Saturn. The emphasis here is on knowledge gain and material comforts.
Uttarashadha Nakshatra 4th Pada: Jupiter rules the Pisces Star sign Navamsa, where the fourth pada of Uttarashada Nakshatra is located. In the following, the focus will continually change from the tangible aspects of things to the spiritual aspects of those same things.
The behavioral traits
They are reserved individuals who require numerous encounters and a period of acquaintance with others before others can begin to comprehend their characteristics. Despite this, they are very straightforward individuals who despise pretense and hypocrisy. The person has a strong resolve and does not give up easily, despite their seeming simplicity and directness in day-to-day interactions. Another attribute of such people is that they consult with others before making any decisions, and they are calm and controlled.
A few favourable characteristics of those born under this nakshatra are their modesty and their willingness to appreciate others for who they are and what they accomplish, regardless of their position in life. Despite their profound disagreements, they are respectful of one another and never express any animosity.
Natives often don’t have the drive to do things and expect constant approval or praise for their work. If they don’t get it, they tend to be unhappy and depressed. They are modest and have a lot of patience for people who may not deserve it. On the one hand, being too humble and not being able to be harsh with people can be seen as a good thing, but it can also get them into trouble and show up as a bad thing at times.
Uttarashada Nakshatra’s ruling god is Lord Ganesha. After being beheaded, Lord Ganesha is claimed to have been brought back to life by having an elephant’s head attached to his body. Therefore, he has a strong connection to both Uttarashada nakshatra and elephants.

About Uttara Ashadha Nakshatra
Uttara Ashadha is the 21st star of the 27 Nakshatras. Referred to as “Star of Universality” and “Constellation of the Heavens”, the Nakshatra occupies the last degrees of the Sagittarius and the first ten degrees of Capricorn. This is the highest point for the Sun and the Sun is exalted in the Uttarashada zodiac. Since the Sun is the ruler of Uttarashada star and Jupiter is the Lord of Sagittarius, the zodiac of this constellation, the energies of Uttarashada are very high and elevated.
In the sky, Uttarashadha is represented in the celestial firmament by a group of 4 bright stars. In modern astronomy, these stars are named- Sigma, Tau, Phi and Zeta- Sagittarii. All these four stars form the shape of “ an Elephant tusk”. As per ancient texts, these stars are associated with celestial areas where the godly forces defeated demonic forces.
Etymologically, Uttara Ashadha means “Latter Invincible One”, or “Later Unconquered”. It signifies the final victory and emphasizes the attainment of the end goal. The symbol of Uttarashadha, Elephant Tusk represents the royal insignia. It speaks of kingship and all the responsibilities that are entailed to it. It also shows the ability to enter new fields of endeavors and penetration power of mental insights. The symbol conveys a sense of fearlessness and an enterprising nature that Uttarashadha males and females exhibit.
The presiding deity of Uttara Ashadha is Vishvadevas, also known as Ten Vishvadevas. These Universal Gods are referred to as “Goodness”, “Truth”, “Willpower”, “Skill”, “Time”, “Firmness”, “Ancestors'', “Brightness”, and “Peak”. These are very auspicious deities who signify the primary virtues of the Divine. These are the guardians of the “Good” in the Universal realm. Thus, the natives of Uttarashada exhibit all the benign and good qualities. Lord Ganesha is also said to be the Uttarashada Nakshatra Lord. He is shown as the God with an elephant’s head and said to be the “Lord of Beginnings” and “God of removing obstacles''.

ça y est, trois cigogneaux sont nés pour l'instant !
three stork chicks are born at the moment!
Ach so ... ja ... genau ... da war doch was ...
Umzug! Uff! Seufz!
joindiaspora.com soll ja geschlossen werden. Ich habe daher versucht, mein Profil auf anderen Pods unterzubringen. Bin aber jedes Mal gescheitert. Echt schade...
Und tut mir leid, das ich da geisterhafte Kontaktfragen erzeugt hatte.
Wer mag, findet mich auf libranet.de. Da habe ich schon länger ein inaktives Konto gehabt. Hab’s jetzt mal reaktiviert, und einige von euch als Kontakt hinzugefügt.
Since joindiaspora.com announced its shutdown in march I’ve been looking for a new home in the fediverse almost all day.
I’ve tried some diaspora pods. But each one wasn’t able to import my profile and photos. So I’ve deleted my temporary account shortly after...
Sorry for the chaos.
On societas diaspora I even began to add my contacts from joindiaspora.com but disappeared there very quickly. Sorry again ... but a new home on diaspora without my old posts and pictures didn’t (and still does not) make any sense for me.
Then I’ve remembered my account on libranet.de ... and so I’m there too ... back again after posting and sharing nothing since years.
That’ll change from now on ... stay tuned.

The only stork found in North America (endangered). Unique appearance. Hairless, s/he seems to be peering out from a wooden mask.
Pardon the whimsy but it's that time of year when stories abound about all sorts of creatures, mythological and not, from the woodlands. And so:

Etwa einmal im Jahr passiert es, dass ein unerfahrener Jungstorch beim Abflug unvorsichtigerweise zu nahe zwischen spannungsführenden Leiter und dem geerdeten Mast kommt. Auch wenn es "nur" eine 100kV Leitung ist, reicht es, um den Storch regelrecht explodieren zu lassen. Er verpufft rückstandslos. Zum Glück ist die Storchenpopulation hier stabil. Dieses Jahr gibt es 4 Jungstörche, welche alle noch leben. Auch ist die Hochspannungsleitung neben dem Haus nicht immer geschaltet.
