18:44 While I was looking at the ospreys I see Pruuni has returned to the nest. She's brooding now...............

at 16.45 Pruuni began to look keenly at the forest: she saw that Halli was coming. she began to call loud... and then Halli brought her some mammal. Pruuni took it into the forest and Halli stayed on the egg.

at 18.14 Halli stood up and jumped to the branch on the right.
EDIT: judging by a second wathing of the clip i'd say Halli left altogether!
he stayed there for a while and then took off.
EDIT: judging by a second wathing of the clip i'd say that maybe it is likely that Pruuni dropped by to have a look at the nest!
then at 18.34 Pruuni arrived and now she is staying there.
PS: they have been up to something else, too, according to P-pictures, but i can't look it up quite yet...

macdoum, i had the same problem for some time: the camera stopped and could not restart from the LK link. i've noticed that in that case the link at the Silma Nature reserve page may work. (not always though!)
http://www.ilm.ee/silma/
i took a better look at the recordings that i got and the P-pictures. it seems that Halli left altogether at 18.15 and did not stay in the home tree as i in haste concluded.
then i'm not sure which one of them arrived on the right branch at 18.19 and left almost at once. it's maybe more likely Pruuni than Halli.
this is a clip from the Pontu picture at 18.19.

i can't say who it is but judging by the video clip (brest and voice) i'd say it was Pruuni.

at 19.31 Pruuni started calling: Halli brought her a nice-sized mammal. Pruuni chirped as thanks to Halli for a while and then she took off into the forest to eat it. Halli stayed at home.

then it seems that Halli stayed on the egg till about 20.42, when he got up on the rim of the nest. there he preened, called quietly every now and then ...(in a sad manner, i think , but that's only human judgement)
.. but he returned to the egg...
at 20.56 he stood up again and called some more, preened some more and then he took off at 20.57.
since then the nest has been empty. the egg is alone...
i'm more convinced than earlier that Halli in some way provoked the jays to come here earlier. there have been no jays in a long time!

ame,perhaps the jays nesting season is over and their young have fledged ?
In that case they no longer care about the proximity of the buzzards and their nest.

could be macdoum... i think they should start early because they are resident. what was surprising to me that there were often two of them at the same time. that means that they had left their nest unguarded (if they were a couple; which i presume.)
the egg is alone and i guess it will remain like that... unless Halli returns.

3:13--
Very early in the morning, the egg is alone-- have Pruuni & Halli finally given up? If so, they will be free to fly as they will & fatten up for the winter.

good morning!
Kitty, i know... ....
now the egg looks so abandoned: no-one wants it. not even any egg-robbers have come to collect it. i wish someone would, then we wouldn't have to watch this sad scene. there were many takers for Maisy's eggs...
i wonder if this really the end now...? i was expecting that they would go on for a week or so... -well this is nearly a week. -Pruuni may still come to wait for food (she's used to get it here) and Halli may still bring something to her....
or maybe not. Halli stood at the nest and called a long time here yester evening before taking off. mayby and hopefully he realized that Pruuni is not coming and will give up himself, too.

a jay came to have a quick look at the egg! i made so perfect imitation of a buzzard's call that i thought it was a buzzard and rushed here from another room...
the jay left so quickly that it seemed be afraid of the egg.

I hope Halli & Pruuni come a little bit in the next few days. They are such pretty birds & I really like their many voices (purrs, meows, kraas, etc.). It would feel so hard to not see them at all anymore from today.

- you were fast enough to capture the jay on the branch. it really looked a bit confused.

It has begun-- the little brown bird (KBV) is thoroughly going through the nest to get things it wants for its own home. It even got right down next to the egg.

P.S. I hope that tapping I hear from time to time is a woodpecker working somewhere, & not coming from the egg . . . no, I am having fantasies of a miracle. If a chick hatched, there is no parent near to protect it. But I do hear tapping.
