ame wrote:after 10 am a raccoon dog was eating. it was probably one of the sick ones. it was difficult to see because of the distance. it left at 10:18.


12:25 the same sick fox as yesterday came at about half past 10. it has been eating there since that.

still eating at 14:28


16:14 the sick raccoon dogs are still eating there...
at 16:03 a third animal walked along the back side of Long Island. it looked like the sick fox. it stopped where there's a shallow point, some sort of a pit, and is now digging there laying low.


at 16:16 it seems that now the other RD has left. the other has two ravens as company.

ame wrote:16:18 fox seemed to attack on the RD! at least it wanted to chase the RD away from its skin.
the fox ran straight towards the RD but it had almost as much impact on the RD as if the fox had ran agaist a wall. the fox then settled on the other skin and the RD continued eating its own.


the fox ate boar skin for quite some time. it made itself comfortable: it was lying on the skin.


then finally it got a piece ripped off and carried it to the forest. i think the piece may have been the foot with the hoof.


17:00 now both racoon dogs are there

4:20 Moon had moved so that the meadow was in shadow and only the treetops in the back were in light.

after 12 a group of ravens came to eat.


13:00 raccoon dogs came back and now ravens are a bit puzzled about what to do.

1:23 the Moon had risen and was shining from South.

9.26 eagle call ... - s-he is close

ame wrote:i don't think they have been eagle calls... i think there have been black woodpeckers calling here. in the early morning i first mistook those calls coming from Linda's but it was from here. there were two of them actually and it sounded like a territory dispute. the voices were rather weird. they made me think of some multicoloured South-American parrots.

it's a shame i didn't understand that the voices were coming from here this morning so i made no recordings. the two-bird-song sounded really interesting.
the bird was calling here for a long time....
