Latvian WtE nest webcamera Juras-erglis Durbe 2021

I personally cannot hear peeps coming from the unhatched egg that's remaining. With 2 hatchlings chirping, the wind blowing and the distance to the camera's microphone, hearing peeps from an unhatched egg seems to be an impossibility.

If it's true, and there are peeps coming from the unhatched egg, it would be quite unusual that the accurate outcome would eventually be all 3 eggs hatching at 41 days each. For just 1 egg to hatch at 41 days is an outlier, but for all 3 eggs to hatch each at 41 days is even a more remote possibility.

The microphone is located right under the nest and it is "very sensitive and records even little birds" - a quote from ame from May 19th 2020 6:52 pm.
There has been eggtalk-like sounds going on all day. It is distinguishable from the chirping of the hatched chicks.
Check 18:19:00 for example; the wind was slow for a moment.

it is not so certain that we can distinguish between the egg talk and a chick's talk from outside the egg. earlier this morning (day?) i hear "egg talk" and the back of a chick was moving with the same rhythm of the calls.
it's not so easy.

Yeah, I brought them here, I think last year...

why?

I just thought that you might miss one of the pictures. You are a collector of important information

I've been at the PC too long! This is an old thread, I thought it was newly created

I need a long break

Ame, thank you for explaining how close the microphone actually is. It makes sense then that unhatched egg chirps and peeps can be heard. My hearing is not what it once was in my youth.

I mentioned the notion that if the 3rd egg hatched, it would make all 3 hatches at 41 days each. My math was too quick and it was also wrong.

If the 3rd egg hatches, it would place the 1st egg at 40 days and the 2nd egg at 40 days and the 3rd egg at 37 days today, or 38 days tomorrow, or 39 days Monday, etc. It also means that the possibility is much greater that all 3 can hatch.

I'm still beyond amazement that any of the eggs hatched at all, considering how often and how long Milda was not incubating them and that the temperatures were in the low 40s (F) or +-6 (C) when she was away.

It can quite reliably be distinguished when we see and hear two chicks eating - when one is busy receiving morsels and the other making pieep-pieep-pieep-sounds, and there's a chup-chup-chup-sound from an already perveived hole in the egg.

For the safest bets we need both our eyes and ears, beside a whole in an egg.
