Little Pi was stuffed under mum.

Tuuli was feeding Stephi -- I think I heard Tuuli talking with Remo, but I did not see him.

hi every1,just love this beautiful family

8:08

Tuuli feeding Little Pi -- Remo must have delivered something a minute or so earlier. I was in the quilting room, but I could hear Tuuli's calls of delight.

Good morning
07:50 - Morning cuddle with mum..

07:59 - and morning care..

08:08 - Remo with a delivery, Tuuli was too quick so I did not see what he brought.

08:08 - Breakfast for Stephi..

9:17

Remo arrived with a vole. At first i did not see it as it was under his talon on the edge of the nest. Stephi, stayed almost sleeping in his spot and Remo seemed a little surprised Tuuli was not in the nest. I can hear her flying around. Maybe she is hunting for herself, quite near the nest.

I forgot when Tuuli arrived and she arrived with a small twig. She must have arrived about 9:27.

By 9:33 Tuuli had found it and Stephi had eaten most of it.

Priscillash18 in your video I can see that was a pretty big prey, maybe even a water vole -- substantially bigger than the things Stephi can eat on her own.

9:59

Tuuli took off

11:21

I guess Remo delivered something and for the first time Stephi put his wings out to protect his prey.

Stephi preening tailfeathers



It looks so nice when little tailfeathers go broad like a fan

I was curious when Stephi will begin to cover food - guessed little Pi would do it soon after being able to take prey from parents and swallow it whole - and so s/he does

That´s what Tormi did last year, too!

A little bit of stretching.


...alone in the nest.


daddy came to me!


hmm, not for a long time.


what should i do now? i have jet hidden frog!













hmm, it's time to...

Good morning Everybody!

Afternoon moments. Stephi and three food deliveries.

Life on the nest looks very contented Tuuli and Stephi are preening in the sunshine (but I do not seem to be getting any sound)

9:43

Woot! Fleur caught a Great Tit on Metra's nest. I just caught a little greeny kind of bird on the edge of this nest. It was there for a little bit but I only got one rather terrible capture. I think maybe this is just as Stephi heard it walking about on her nest.

(But I saw it which gets a )

Here is the enlarged version

The little bird is down below the slash mark.

Stephi just did a cute stretch.


(I kind of like Phi as a nick name too)

Stephi alone in the nest, trying to eat himself something that looks like a frog.

Got it



17:55 The higher the better ....
