Stork ‘Yaren’ reunites with mate ‘Nazli’ in Turkiye’s Bursa
Eskikaraagac ‘Stork’ Village in Bursa witnesses a heartwarming reunion as ‘Yaren’ stork returned to its nest, joyously reuniting with its mate ‘Nazli’
Stork ‘Yaren’ and its spouse stork ‘Nazli’ perched on a nest in Eskikaraagac ‘Stork’ Village of Bursa, Turkiye.
A longstanding friendship between a stork and an angler in the Karacabey district of Bursa, a northwestern province, blossomed once again as the majestic bird returned for its 13th consecutive year of migration.
Gracefully resting upon the fisherman’s boat, the stork reignited a bond forged over the years.
For 13 years, the stork named Yaren has settled in its nest in Eskikaraagac Stork Village every spring when it returns from migration. Yaren spends spring and summer with Adem Yılmaz, setting sail on the Uluabat Lake on the fisherman’s boat.
It was noteworthy that Yaren arrived earlier this year compared to previous years.
The stork, which migrated early and landed on Yılmaz’s boat on Feb. 29 this year, arrived on March 17, 2023.
The duo’s story gained international fame after being photographed on the lake.
The story was performed as a shadow play in Greece and became the subject of textbooks in Austria and Germany.
In 2019, the documentary “Yaren,” filmed by Burak Dogansoysal and prepared with the contributions of the Karacabey Municipality, returned from the Prague Film Awards with the title of best documentary.
