An urban rewilding group is seeking the public’s views on the potential return of white storks to London as part of a project to see if the birds could make a home in the capital.
White storks could once be seen flying in Britain’s skies and building their huge nests on roofs and in trees, but they disappeared centuries ago as a breeding bird as a result of hunting and habitat loss.
Citizen Zoo, an organisation that specialises in community-led urban rewilding, is conducting an appraisal on making London a “white stork-friendly city”. It will include habitat mapping, contacting boroughs across the capital to gauge their interest and surveying the public about the birds.

No wonder the birth rate has been down.
