Description
The Leleka is a stork that is indigenous to Ukraine. It traditionally liked to make its nest on the roofs of village homes. In modern times it has adapted to other man-made structures such as telephone and electrical poles. It is named after Lei, the god of good and love, who symbolizes the birth of new life. If a Leleka nested around your house it was considered a good sign, a blessing. For many people Leleka means almost the same as a child, happiness of new life.
