Something catches Lotte´s attention and she is upset and doesn´t seem to know whether she should fly out or not.
But she stays with the eggs, it takes some time until she is back on the eggs, but still attentive ....

Lotte has the same "problem" like before --- fly out or fly not out?

Lotte has a reason to fly out in daylight, an ususal time for her.
Cam operator follows her, but I can´t make out a reason for her trip ...
She returns at 11:24

17:38
Someone/something upside scared Lotte and she is shooting up and ruffling all feathers, making herself huge and protecting the eggs
Cam operator checked the area above, but I could not see what Lotte saw or heard ...








She calmed down again rather quick

Lotte was out from 20:30 - 20:41, she spent time on a high point on the opposite ridge

Lotte flies out and we can hear a talking egg!
But which one was it?
On one of the eggs one can see little breaks, was it this one and the owlet is already working on the egg shell to open it?







Lotte returned at 23:43

11. April

Lotte was out from 05:46 - 06:17

There was no zoom on the eggs, but it looks like they are still intact, no broken shell.
I neither saw Lotte eating egg shell until now ... but one can clearly hear the egg talking, even under Lotte´s belly
