Saw it at 04:55, but I wrote something about it yesterday Morning :mrgreen:

After dozens of Maitings per day, and with a girl who is not running away like during the previous years, Eggie was a must!

Sometimes we saw miracles... But I know that in this case it's really impossible.

But as I wrote last week, I'm glad that they are a couple and perhaps next year they'll come earlier. They are practicing mom-dad rolls :thumbs:

Both females in Estonia and Latvia came up at the same day. Both laid eggs ten days later. Now what?

- after they wrote Dr. Strazds and Urmas, I'm not optimistic
- as always, we can only watch and accept what happens

I have great respect to all professional, but...

From watching daily this girl since her arrival, I have a feeling that she older and more experienced. She is doing all by the book...

Or is it the same girl who was here in previous year\s ?

Nice couple in a weak nest :mrgreen:
