12:13 little birds on the nest: a great tit, a chiffchaff maybe (or a willow warbler or some such) and finally a crested tit.


12:48 an eagle called nearby. it sounded like a female voice. before that sound of big wings. Milda flew somewhere near i think.

September 21

Good morning Ame and all

[ame]

good morning Liz and all!

6:48 about 30 i think i heard a short eagle call.
it was almost 6:49
ka-ka-ka-ka.


edit: maybe it was a jay imitating eagle...?

[Liz01]

7:07 Raimis has arrived too
7:08 Milda jumps on the left branch
7:11 Milda flew away
​7:12 Milda returned
7:14 Milda flew away again

​7:15 she is back with a stick
7:17 Milda flew on the right branch
​Raimis is on the left branch

​7:19 she returned in the nest
7:20 Raimis jumps on the left branch, Milda too
​7:21 Both leaves

[ame]

7:05 an eagle flew by from the left to the right.


7:06 Milda came home.
then followed Raimis. Milda got up to the top balcony.

7:11 Milda flew out. Raimis froze. he doesn't know what to do...

[ame]

7:12 Milda came back. ... and back to the balcony.
i need coffee...
i made their visit in two long pieces.

Good Morning !

Saw their visit last night They were so beautiful in the special late
afternoon light, their colors and feathers were like a painting!!

And such a good chemistry between them

I really hope that we'll see them together for many years

If only someone will find the way to put on them rings by remote control, because sometimes they look like twins

[Liz01]

9:27 Great tit selfie

[ame]

this time the great tit was a girl: a narrow tie.


the trees have started to turn yellow. i have thought that they have been doing it for a few days already but i wasn't sure. this morning it is clear.

[Liz01]

13:49 two raven visit the nest


they are renovating the nest

13:54 A Raven is still hard working in the nest

flew away, while i was writing

[ame]

13:49 two ravens on a visit.
the other took a stick and put in a new place. she doesn't like the eagle decor!
or was she planning to steal the stick?


she flew out of sight but the other still stands on the nest. so beautiful...

[ame]

the second raven was also changing places of sticks. Raimis and Milda are inexperienced in nest building that even ravens can see it and make corrections to their plans.

13:54 the first raven flew by the nest tree and the second raven flew out after her.

Ame, during the weekend I saw that the Bid tree (next to ex-Parents tree), became very green

I understood that the autumn is already on it's way... The changes are always slow at the beginning; later it goes very fast and in no time forest will be naked.

Sep 22

good morning!
some insect crawled on the lens at about 8:10 and decided to stay.
mega2 made a picture of the insect:

no eagles so far. only a raven called nearby.

8:20 the insect walked away. it seemed to have very long antennae. too bad that it was too much out of focus, too near the lens.

[ame]

16:51 a nuthatch with an acorn.
or a nut?

i think she stuffed the acorn or nut between the sticks and then put some nest materials on top of it so that it cannot be seen. clever bird!


after the nuthatch many great tits.
