Estonian LSE Nest Discussion 2012 ~ Tuuli & Remo

[Bea]

Tuuli calling again and again and watching the sky for quite a long time

[Bea]

She preend, then left the nest for a minute and came back with a dry twig, put it on the nestbowl and laid herself down for a moment

[Bea]

Now she took some time to clean her feathers and take some sticks from the left to the right and left the nest again ....

[Bea]

.... to come back with another fresh pine-twig

[Bea]

Cleaning feathers and then Tuuli hopped on the rear branch, only her tailfeathers are still in sight - then she took off at 12:34.









The last views of Tuuli and Remo this season?

[asteria]

I don't know, they may appear here a few more times again.

[Starling]

Thank you for your pictures!
Nice to see them again. They look well.

[ame]

14.31 a bang like a shot in the forest!?
...nothing to be seen... or heard more.

I heard that, too.

[Bea]

It sounds like thunder to me now ....

[Chimega]

I don't hear thunder right now but either wind or rain or both. But that other, it was a crack like a gun shot for sure. Could have been a branch breaking, too.

[Maxie4Paws]

thank you so very much for all the pretty pic. of Tuuli.. I missed Remo being there as i got on to late. did anyone get a pic. of him on the nest also??
It made me very happy to see her there to know they will be back next year..

[Bea]

15.21 rain started and the sun is still shining.

two minutes later the sun is out in a cloud. it sounds like hard rain.

Thank you. was at the right time at the right camera
(sorry,Bea, fir branch. never saw in this nest pine branch)

[Dadel]

What does that bow to eachother mean? Can anybody tell that?

[Dadel]

Other question ...When young LSE 50 % dies, what is the reason for that high mortalaty. Really bad and that is in a good year. Its shocking
Than in a bad year there will be no chicks who survive?

[Dadel]

Bea, what a beautiful pictures do you have made. I,m so glad to see them again.

[Bea]

Thank you. was at the right time at the right camera
(sorry,Bea, fir branch. never saw in this nest pine branch)

Hi aita,

had a lucky clickfinger today

Pine versus fir:
One more time google translator offers too much possibilities .... it mixes up all together - the German "Tanne", "Fichte" and "Kiefer" can, as google translator says, all be said as "pine" or "fir" or what else ...
But will better write fir, if it is the right word!

[Bea]

What does that bow to eachother mean? Can anybody tell that?

Hi Dadel,

when Tuuli and Remo met again this season first time on the nest, they also made these bows to each other - probably a behaviour to show their relationship to each other.

Maybe another one can explain better?
