A slightly defiant Bubo. :mrgreen:

20:40
Something's flying over Bubo.

20:40

:shock: His eyes are still on alert. :mrgreen:

20:29 - 20:32 Bubo again

20:54 Bubo landed on the nest edge with a big dark prey (it's a bird) :D
20:56 He jumped on the nest bowl and hid his prey near the nest edge under the camera 8-)
20:58 Bubo left, the prey is on the nest (isn't visible)

Liz, thank you for the nice pictures and video :thumbs:, Bubo is beautiful :D

Bubo was distracted back in the woods all the time... just staring there. Until he went away. :unsure:
Sometimes I thought the camera was frozen. :slap:

Image

The photo is very blurred. (Even more than usual :mrgreen: )
Something is different on YouTube now. I still have to practice. Sorry. :unsure:

No Bubo again today?
Seems that he has given up advertising. :puzzled:

With the switching to night light a beautiful bird song begins. =)

I miss the evening visits of Bubo very much but our little friend has earned a break from the exhausting time. :nod:
I guess it's time to wish him all the best until late fall.

Take care of our hero and come again! :2thumbsup:

Today I missed Bubo. I was late home but I got smart with our bird friends in the neighbor forum and could rewind.
Greetings there and thank you for your continued attention! ❤

21:11 And Bubo sat down on the edge of the sea.

It's a strange rattling to hear...a rattling. I can't interpret the bird but it makes me curious.

At 21:12:18 a nimble shadow can be seen. A bat?
Birds can still be heard all around and Bubo is also very keen-hearing and attentive. He takes care of his nest cave but he is always distracted. His shouting seems quieter than usual.

Digging the nest bowl.

21:14
Bubo in restlessness ... .

Once again a quick checking look into the gifts corner ....hm, empty.
Hopefully Bubo doesn't think about the little shadow over the nest earlier. :whistling:

21:15 He leaves the nest.

Hellem :hi:

I thought so too, but I try to keep the nest running every night. It didn't become easy with the return of the Ospreys. That's why I looked for the topic in the related forum. The friends there are also very attentive and that was very helpful today. :2thumbsup:

:rotf: :slap: ....

Meanwhile I have DeepL translate it but sometimes it remains curious. It seems to me more accurate than Google translator.

Of course not sea... that would be probably nothing for our Bubo. :D

Sorry.
I should better proofread or learn English myself. :rolleyes:

Now I have to rewind... I didn't have the camera running.
