Latvian WtE nest webcamera Juras-erglis 2016: Observations

[ame]

13:18 Shilute was preening the pants of Vents. then she also preened him under the wing. he looked a bit ticklish.
then she called a few times in a soft and very high-pitched voice. that was soooo cute.


edit: i was wrong, ti was the other way round: Vents preened and tickled Shilute.
the nest bowl is so deep already that it is difficult to see their rings.
Shilute had a feather tuft above her beak today.

i'll make a clip later.

Glad to see that they expanded the nest to the right and added a terrace.

It gives them enough space for the future Fish Shop

13:17 Vents began to preen and tickle Shilute. he pulled some of her wing feathers and then he preened her trousers and tickled her under her wing. first Shilute seemed a bit surprised about this and she was not quite sure if she liked this or not. finally Vents sang a few verses to her in a soft tweety voices. that looked very tender and funny at the same time.


13:21 Vents jumped to the branch here i could see clearly that it was him.


then both had a good preening.
13:32 both flew away.
