............ However the nest is in very bad condition (I almost forgot it). We will see how they can deal with it .

Sue, you're very welcome

poor Kaupo will have to do a lot! But Tobias nest was destroyed too. At the age of 19, he has rebuild the nest in a very short time. He was great! And I still miss him.

Liz, thank you ............Yes, you are right, I remember. He was really great and I still miss him too!

Gaja had this black feather on the right since she came to the nest 2018! I did not notice it at the beginning. That was much later in the season. I am not sure if I or someone else has seen this characteristic first.

Hello all together,

Now I'm pretty sure it is Gaja! Gaja had a black feather on hér right side! This feather is still visible : loveshower:

How nice, that it's "our" Gaja! Wonderful, that she returned safe and sound from Africa.

Thank you, Liz, Solo, Sue and all for todays reports and pictures.

April 2

Good Morning everyone

Empty nest again this morning.

I've made a video from her depature March 31, 13:11 PM
Since then, she was no longer at the nest



EDIT:

6:55 She removes some loose pieces from the nest............

That's when I thought she would not brood here. she looked like, she did think that the nest would not be safe.
Then I remembered that this nest was not build again and again by Kaupo and Gaja. That was another couple.

So we have to wait and see what happens.
Today my English skills are not available I've to go for a while.
