Vilnis has spent long stretches of time watching at the forest and the sky...
then he has eaten his fish again but it is nearly not finished yet.

Sometimes it seemed to me that he was crying. In fact, it seemed to me, he felt somehow "unhappy" in the nest today. :unsure:

Balistar, I see so, too. Vilnis was somehow odd.
Was he missing poweful mantling play, missing Robis
there to fight with. Vilnis was lonely and not very hungry?
We never get to know his soul ... :rolleyes:

Sylvika, there must have been someone around all the time, sometimes flying around and above the nest, out of our view.
Who ever it was, maybe Robis, was disturbing Vilnis from eating his fish in peace.
Vilnis was not amused.

Hmm. But then, dear Vilnis, why don't you try to carry
your lovable fish out of nest, as Robis do ? Would it be time
to learn that next ? Then you could eat somewhere in some
hiding place!

whatever was the question it is over now: the nest is empty.
i'll try to see what happened later.
edit: i have now watched the recording but i still can't say what was going on that stopped Vilnis eating.
17:41 he was looking to the right most of the time. then he called at someone...
https://youtu.be/qguxTEcyX3Q

17:54 onward he was also looking up in the sky ... then this someone apparently flew away because Vilnis started eating.


Vilnis finished eating. then he made some WE & CE.
18:14 he flew away.

the screaming started already at 20:50 and went on and on till 20:56. it was one direct siren and the other called every now and then.

20:57 only one cried in the forest. if it was not a food song then it was a 'i see a parent'-song.

21:06 some cranes flew by and called. i could not see them but they had to be above 'our' forest opening. the voices were so loud.
https://youtu.be/CB0PNqyE_3M

21:04 - 21:10 the eaglet called 3 times.
https://youtu.be/-N7MnL5CTyY

21:11 (nearly) a big bird flew by from left to right and over the meadow. it looked very much like an eaglet.
https://youtu.be/v6lRM7xoLtU

after that no eaglet's calls.

it is getting dark now.
good night!

which branches? :puzzled:

10:07 Robis threw one big branch into air and tried to capture it. "missed, oops!"
all this lasted less than a second, shorter time than each of these frames is shown in this gif. :mrgreen:
