FB hates me. It never shows me the important information.
I saw it on the main page of Looduskalender.

Earlier on the stream I see a few eggs.
Two, maybe three ?
Oops, I read there are two eggs

We can hope for the next egg tomorrow.
Hopefully there will also be a special thread for the nest, after all there is a folder for the bird of the year.
In the video that is already there (no time stamp) I was looking for the spruce bark beetle but instead spotted one of its predators - probably the ant beetle (Thanasimus formicarius). Photos enhanced for sharpness.
These prey on the adult bark beetle as well as on its offspring. They are helpful in decimating the bark beetles temporarily, but can not stop mass infestation. (Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thanasimus_formicarius and more detailed in the German version)
