10.03 cam.time heard Buzzard and looked - yes, one busy in nestbowl, but just for a minut or so, then took of.
Haven´t noticed more and have to leave now

HAve a nice Sunday everyone

i had the camera off till 10.34 while uploading videos. it's been empty since that...

if i counted right the buzzard came to the nest altogether 7 times this morning! and stayed for about 35 minutes altogether. together with the visit which b.h-p saw it's 8 visits. that's a lot compared to the previous days (maybe i exaggerated its diligence a bit; this is about two-three days' work, but the day is young!)

the buzzard came at 11.30 and made some arrangements in the nest, talking to itself...

at 11.35 the other (bigger?) buzzard arrived, too.

- is it the smaller male who comes here frequently to do nest arrangemants and the female come every now and then to see what he has done? or is it vice versa??


the first left at 11.35 and the second stayed on the right branch for a while more. it left at 11.37.

after that there was some meouwing from the sky...

a buzzard came to the nest at 11.54. it was kind of crawling in from the right..? i wonder whether it was on the right side on a branch somewhere...
yes: it came a minute earlier to the right side of the picture.

i had the volume down because of the wind so i did not notice it.

now the buzzard is just standing there on the side of the nest and looking around...

it came down to the nest again, kaa-kaa'ed a few times and climbed to the back-branch...

... and it took off at 12.04.

VLC crashed when videos were uploading... there it is sitting on the back branch.

... gone at 12.33.

BTW: there's a new singer in the forest today: a chiffchaff.

i've recorded (and re-recorded some as "editing") so many videos that i'm a bit worried that i'll get confused...

The arrival at 9:26. Sorry if my sentence was a bit imprecise. Now I´m back at home and saw that you have added a video to your posting at this time meanwhile – it´s exactely the same scene which I have recorded, so there´s no need to post my video.

By the way: thanks for your buzzard documentation.

the buzzards or one of them was so busy this morning that i had a hard time in writing notes and making recordings and taking pictures and uploading them here and there that i thought i'd make a bad mess about it. so it was a very good thing that you made a back-copy, maertha!

at 13.44 - 13.46 there was some meowing in the sky but no-one came down to the nest.

the buzzard came at 14.05 and called a lot. then it climbed on the right branch and waited...


at 14.10 the other arrived. it seemed to be bigger and darker but i'm not sure.


grey jumped in to the nest...


and made a duck-dive.


Brown followed to the nest..


Brown didn't stay long but the other (Grey) did. it was looking around for quite some time and left at 14.14.

now it's in the nest calling loudly and a lot....


it left at 14.35

... but returned almost right away and the other (Brown) followed at 14.36.




Grey left at 14.37 and Brown stayed for its turn, calling loudly. Grey replied from flight. Brown looked around and left at 14.38.

this one i want to add right away. a little bird came to look at the nest. a chiffchaff was singing just seconds before it came and it looks like a chiffchaff so i think it was a chiffchaff!

at 15.20 it's in the nest again!
now it is arranging little pine twigs.

- i wish it will not sprain itself with all that hard work.

it's continuing working silently. it's arranging little pine twigs and struggled a little with that crossing stick.


now it lay down in the bowl...

now it is just lying down there.... and yawned!
then it began arranging twigs again but it is still lying in the bottom. this it hasn't done so far.

15.48 it turned around and dug something in the nest bowl and arranged twigs etc. now it's lying still again.


and turned a little again at 15.53.

the buzzard has been lying there in the nest already a hour. it kaa-kaa'ed a little at 16.05 and raised itself a little, but lay down again. since that it has been lying there calmly.

i think it is falling asleep. - poor darling, it has worked so hard all day.
