The nest is on a ledge, in the valley of river "Ahr".

Major events 2016
7. April --- Lotte spotted sitting on eggs viewtopic.php?p=452145#p452145
13. April --- Three eggs were spotted viewtopic.php?p=454285#p454285
25. April --- First and second owlet hatched viewtopic.php?p=458939#p458939
2. May --- We spotted the third owlet viewtopic.php?p=459604#p459604
13. May --- Smallest owlet didn´t make it viewtopic.php?p=465893#p465893
15. May --- Only one owlet left viewtopic.php?p=466580#p466580
Leo tried to feed the last owlet viewtopic.php?p=466580#p466580
23. May --- Additional feeding starts viewtopic.php?p=469772#p469772
30. May --- Owlet gets its ring viewtopic.php?p=472090#p472090
3. June --- Owlet was moved to the upper nestplace viewtopic.php?p=473169#p473169
It is difficult to define a correct date about our owlet fledging - it spent a lot of time in a bush over the upper nestplace and on higher points on the ledge, so it is hard to say when it made its maiden flight .... see also romy´s summary in the post below.

Leo was here in the morning - and it was not only a short visit
He came in at 07:17, Lotte must have been close, she can be heard calling hoarse
Leo stayed more or less on the same place until 07:39, then he walked to the nestbowl and there was some action - and zoom
Maybe Lotte came closer or back, so that Leo wanted to show her his good skills as an apartement manager ;)
He stayed until 07:54

Some pics
Zoom on his ring, perhaps the mystery about his exact year of birth is still unsolved
