two ravens flew to the nest tree before the eagles came.

6:36 the young couple in the early morning.


7:34 there were actually two yellowhammers. they have so good camouflage colours that they are really hard to see against the nest bottom. a female came first and landed on the nest. the male stayed on the branch. (i think this way.)
the two yellowhammers in close-up.


in normal view:

i don't know if i found the treecreeper yet.

7:57 => two ravens made three visits in a row: two very brief ones and on the third time they stayed a little longer.


stream cut off. - - - but only for a short while.

10:35 both flew away, first the male from the branch, then the female from the nest.

before leaving the female pooped on the nest. :slap:


edit: the male was on the nest and the female on the branch! :slap:

i think there's a swan near the pond. i guess that the post is flooded and there's water on a large area, much larger than in the summer. i marked the white spot in the above picture.

instead of a treecreeper i found this little bird at 7:33. to me it looked like a goldcrest maybe.
Image

it stopped on the branch for a few seconds only.i made a slow-motion clip of it (1/8 of normal speed).

A few minutes after 12.00 distant eagle calls could be heard. About 12:12/13 an unringed eagle arrived, screaming. Landed on a branch.

About 12:13 I heard the raven calling in nest.

The male came running from far and called, he is now sitting on the branch
defending his castle :mrgreen:
