Jan 19

good morning!
light has come to the forest.
there's some more show on the nest but still the small sticks in the middle are 'shining' through the snow. it not very windy, only some stronger gusts every now and them. i hope it will stay that way till the evening.

10:45:about 10 an animal ran by the nest on the right side and panted (?) heavily.

[Liz01]

10:45 wild boars are to hear under the nest tree

ame, for me it sounded like a boar

[Liz01]

​A change of optical sensor will take place tonight, where Estonian colleagues, including Urmas, will take part.

Chat info...

[ame]

thanks for the info, Liz. let's hope that the wind stays low and that the boys will have a nice climbing weather. i hope they will dress up properly and stay warm.
i gave both a pair of woolsocks.
i could not see the animal(s) under the nest at 10:45. they may well have been a boar. they are around as your video yesterday showed.

there's a little bird who has been singing near the nest for a while. the bird has stayed out of sight...
i can't figure out what bird it is?

12:25 at last i saw the bird: "the red spruce parrot" alias red crossbill (Loxia curvirostra).

12:33: a crossbill on the left branch.
12:34 flew to the right branch. there are many of them as usual.

[Liz01]

12:37 Bird with pine cone on the poopbranch
12:38:20 is eating on the lower right branch now

....i gave both a pair of woolsocks.

EDIT: I found it again

[ame]

great pictures of the crossbill!

ealier in the morning another little bird sang nearby when Milda was at home. this sounded like a goldfinch but i'm not sure.
edit: maybe the voices were crossbills after all! those were around.

8:55 Raimis flew around the nest 3 times (!) before he brought the stick that almost fell down.


9:17 Milda rescued this stick from falling down when she brought a stick of her own. i made a slow-motion close-up of this operation. i used the live camera sound as background sound. the crossbills were nearby already then.
edit: Milda brought a green twig, not only a plain stick.

[ame]

12:37 a crossbill on poop branch with a cone. another crossbill flew to the branch, perhaps to steal the cone but both failed to keep it: the cone dropped down.

12:38:10 a crossbill with cone on a branch in lower right corner.
12:40:35 a crossbill with cone on the top branch. ... and another on another left branch.

12:42 a crossbill with cone again on a branch in lower right corner.
they are everywhere.

12:45 suddenly they all flew away.
they had quite a feast on the cones.
i made a video of the visible part of their stay. it's probably best to watch this in full screen. there are little birds everywhere.

[ame]

12:50:about 35 and eagle's voice? or was it a jay again??
a jay has been making its voices nearby. probably it was an imitation again.


edit: i found the 4 boar walking by the nest at 10:45:40.
i read in the chat where they were. it must be the same group of four as yesterday.
i made a close-up of them walking by. first came two piggies and a little after them two more.
