First of all: many thanks for your observations, reports and pictures!

Last year, the first egg was laid April 19th. It hatched May 16th.
That makes 34 days.

Because there seems to be intense incubation, right away, this egg could theoretically hatch in about 33 days, I think.
From Thursday 14 May 2020 to Tuesday 16 June 2020 will be 33 days.
Sorry, looks like I made a typo. :mrgreen:

I still believe that because there seems to be intense incubation, right away, this egg could theoretically hatch in about 33 days.

Thank you for the poll @juta

The temperature in Karula National Park the following night will decrease to 1 ° C. But it's nice and warm under the feathers. :nod:

Karl once reacted as if he was under attack, unfortunately I don't remember the time.

Well, maybe he shouldn't have been looking for a young lady like that, but where love falls. :loveshower:

I'm curious when he flies, he has to eat something.

Could it be that she is laying her next egg somewhere else because Karl has pushed her off the egg? :puzzled: :unsure:

:loveshower: Finally ..... it is there

Charlemagne, instead of flying to eat, fetches nesting material.
And she probably doesn't know that you have to lie on it :rotf: , she pokes and rolls. :D

She thinks she always looks confused about what Karl does, ok that's how you learn
She is always frightened when Karl comes back.

Karl II brought grass for the nest. So for him the egg is priority and not his empty stomach. :thumbs: And then wet grass with soil and again...
