15:30 Lotte was eating something.


First I thought it is the next cracking eggshell. Hope I am right and next owlet has hatched. Lotte was eating for minutes.


15:35 Awww! Cute owlet is to be seen.


15:36

Yes-yes, Lotte was crunching eggshell ... so we have a second hatched owlet now

15:30


The older owlet was already curious and peeking out - and I am not quite sure that we could already even see the little rump of the fresh hatchling, for a moment.

[Riitta]

Bea , I was a bit excited, when watching Lotte.
Thanks for your suitable vid.

17:11 Owlet again peeking out for a moment.

Lotte is flying out - can´t say who is who of the owlets, I see only a big white fluff pile :)


20:48
Lotte comes home without prey. Maybe the owlets are here a bit better to tell apart

sova , nice pics of feeding.

11:49 When I go online, it looks that Lotte is eating leftover of prey.

Some events from last night ....

00:04
Leo delivers a mouse for his family



04:53
Lotte flys out


05:04
Lotte returns, seems to settle down again, but then she hears something or someone and is going out again, but I think she was not far, perhaps only "in the door"

She seemed to be expectating

[Bea]

08:30
Begin of feeding - there is still the mouse in the larder and some darker prey, I think this is one she got yesterday

[Bea]

21:05
Leo delivers a mouse for the family

Leo with prey



02:21
Leo delivers prey



At both deliveries I couldn´t see which kind of prey, as Leo hands it over exactly in the entrance, hidden with greenery

But I suppose that both was size of mouse

[Bea]

03:51
Lotte flys out and we have view on the owlets



03:54
Lotte returns and begins feeding the owlets



She was out again from 05:40 - 05:44, short flight to the loo

[Bea]

07:18
Lotte is worried about something/someone (?) There was some rustling close and she first ruffles her feathers and then makes some step to the entrance, to check what is going on there. But it seems that it was nothing improtant, as she returns to the owlets and settles down again soon



08:58
Lotte starts feeding the owlets. It seems there is no soooo big difference in size between them, so chances to get equal food is also good for the younger one. Both owlets look vivid for me.
At this feeding the older/bigger one gets the first morsels, but later the smaller one got its share, too.

[Riitta]

Good to know. that younger owlet has good prospects to get its share of food.

13:14 Feeding, now and then hissing to be heard, but owlets not in cam view.


13:24 Finish of feeding.

[Mamicja]

Three deliveries 20:40, 20:46 and 20:52

[Riitta]

Three (Easter)eggs for Lotte and the owlets.

[Bea]

Leo had a run - three mice in such a short time

One for Lotte and one for each owlet

Short summary about night activities

There was a long feeding after midnight and around 7 o´clock in the morning.

Lotte was out from 04:58 - 05:04 and 05:52 - 06:06

I noticed no more delivery during night time, but I think the three mice were an ample supply for the rest of the night and the day.

[gisela]

"Happy Easter" Bea.....and all Lotte-Friends!

12:20 Feeding works.
12:27 Hissing owlets, but Lotte finishes the feeding.
