thank you Sonchik. I will check it

22:37:07 some bird is calling.. it's not our Rika

She has never been on a branch for a long time

[Liz01]

7:18 hungry Miks is calling for fish
7:30 is sleeping
7:31 awakened
7:32:40 he sneezed

nothing to see from Milda or Raimis
7:33:35 he is calling for fish. So one of the parents is near

[ame]

good morning!

thank you for the reports and comments!

so Miks is still alone? and nothing is heard from the parents? yesterday morning the called in the forest but has their voices been heard after that?

Liz, i'm sure that Rika is doing fine, just like Vilnis last year. or actually much better! Vilnis was a week younger and had not practised much at all. Rika can fly just fine. we probably saw her fly by yesterday.
... i would like to see the parents... and a fish!

[Sonchik]

In a chat heard to Rika again at 7:24:45. It is already similar to an eagle.

[Abigyl]

While he jumped and destroyed the nest's floor last evening,

...

Strong wind didn't give the chance to hear much.

[ame]

yes, you are right Sonchik, it was too windy. but it is not windy any more.

Miks is making WE on the outer right branch. and eating green cones for breakfast.


btw: the eagle flew in the direction of the Fish Market yesterday evening.

8:03 Miks made WE between the nest and branches.

[ame]

8:13 a black bird? flew by? i saw a black flash in the corner of my eye.
Miks called kakakakaa at it. ... yes i think it was a blackbird. this is the best picture that i got.


then he jumped to the nest and further to the top branch. he is making WE...

8:17 Miks went to the top! out of sight.

8:15 he made more WE on the top branch. then he pooped.
8:17 he jumped to the top out of our sight.

[Abigyl]

08:17 Looks like he choose the moment...

08:16 There was a PS from the top LB. As if he prepares himself to leave...

I was looking at him at that time and didn't believe that it arrived

He is 77 days old today

thank you Sonchik. I will check it

22:37:07 some bird is calling.. it's not our Rika

She has never been on a branch for a long time

i think it was a blackbird (Turdus merula). crazy bird to sing in that weather.


Miks stood all night in the same place on the left branch. he didn't move his feet practically at all.
23:22 it became dark.


3:47 light was coming.


it was very windy and dark all night.

[ame]

8:26 Miks jumped to the poop branch and then to the nest.
8:28 to the left branch and back and then to the right. the pendulum.

[Abigyl]

08:27 10 min was too much for him...

08:29

That's it! A very nice high flight

[ame]

8:29 did he fly?? yes!! wow!
and to the right just like Rika so that we could not see how they flew.


this is a long video containing the exercises from 8:26 when he came down from the (invisible) top to the nest and finally leaving at 8:29.

[Abigyl]

Yes Ame !!!

"WE DID IT" It was hard but we see him leaving normally

[Liz01]

I was away .. the nest is empty

Thank you ame, Sonchik and Abigyl for reporting.

I hope we will see our little rascals soon

BTW: I'm not worried about Miks.. He is great

[Sonchik]

I made a long video of jumping to the top and flying.
08:14 - 08:29
