The occupied stork nests in the Weser villages are particularly attractive in the summer months. After the population in North Rhine-Westphalia was very low at the end of the 1980s, around 90 storks are now breeding successfully again in the Minden-Lübbecke district alone. Almost a third of the stork nests and stork pairs can be found in the "stork capital Petershagen".
You can find more information on where and whether breeding is taking place at the following link:
