Storks

I noticed this huge nest a few weeks ago and have been meaning to snap pictures of the stork that lives in it. Today I remembered. Stork in Ukrainian and Russian, respectively, is лелека and аист (laylayka and ayst).

Today is also Victory Day. All I really know is that it's in memory of all those who fought during the Great Patriotic War (World War II). There was a concert today, but unfortunately I found out about it about an hour too late.

Also, I went for a run today and ended up at a picnic. Ukrainian hospitality continues to amaze me.

Here are some pictures from a recent walk.
