I would like to reply to this post:

The mix between observational posts and those which dock onto those observations seems to become especially chaotic in times like these when the events onscreen become more unusual and raise no end of questions and thoughts. In part, I believe, this is owed to the great interest in these eagles and that people would like to have at least an idea what possibly to expect.
I fully understand that these discussions can become a nuisance to those interested in the chronology of events as they occur on camera. Separating observations from everything that goes beyond them can be one way to bring back order and clarity.
It would make this separation a little fairer, I think, if the expected restrictions were applied to all those things regularly found in observational posts, too. Giving names to eagles that are not surely and convincingly identified or to those that have not even once shown themselves onscreen, describing the
potential feelings of Milda, speculating about her motives or moods, speculating about potential attackers, describing ones own feelings or any other personal remarks, witty comments on what happens onscreen, and many other things are - strictly speaking - no
"observations and reports that can be either seen or heard on this camera"
either. Nor are the elucidating remarks on things to do with WTE (but not onscreen), the positions of the planets above their nest, or comparisons with other nests/eagles.
All those can mess up the neutrality of the observation and the clarity of the ongoing chronological thread, too. They can lead to more non-observational remarks. Discussions, too, tend to arise from observations that are already in part interpretations. It seems perhaps not altogether fair, if those disagreeing with such an interpreting observation must write their thoughts somewhere else; it may also lead to a rather onesided view on the events in this thread.
Another way to do it may be somehow to limit the posts that discuss things. Be it that everyone gets only one or two such posts per day. Or that the number of letters is limited (as in commentary sections of newspapers) so that they do not become too massive. Or otherwise.
Edit: The planes can be seen - error of mine!
