16:12. The female also quickly ate the fish, the male caught the fish. Maybe under the Nest stands refrigerator?
She says quietly to her husband. 16:14. The male flew from the nest, and the female was engaged in their direct duties.

It seems to me that the eggs differ in color. The first egg is more brown, less bright than the second egg. Interestingly, this is normal?

I noticed that the eggs are different colours too.

Wow, those first two attacks are really sudden and unexpected. Just a flash.
Definitely an owl: rounded head and wings. Before the second attack a female Tawny Owl is calling but that doesn't have to be the attacker.

This is the attack! Thanks for the links! Poor girl.
She is very scared. Yes, it's definitely a night owl.

16:36. Female something quiet chirps. The male gave her a place in incubation. He flew directly behind a pine tree and then to the right.
16:41. The male arrived with another batch of wood. 16:43. A strong gust of wind slightly changed the flight path of the male when he flew out of the nest. The female chirps quietly.

Gavril thanks for the very nice pictures and the Comments
I do not know, why the egg has a different color . Apart from the fact, that an egg is already longer than the other in the air and the color changes?

Male arrived with a headless fish for the female.
When she got up I saw 3 EGGS!
I have been watching this next this morning and never noticed the 3rd Egg!
Please name this couple! 3 Eggs and no names?
