Good fortune

Storks are commonly believed to bring good fortune.
In Germany, they were known as "Adebar" which means "luck-bringer."
In the Netherlands,
a stork nesting on one's roof is welcomed as a good omen

Something we don't have. I would love to see them. I suppose the chimney doesn't work, or the nest would burn up?
