She surely has a way of holding 'things' in her beak - small twigs ('Miss Twiggy') or one of her feathers. I wonder why she does it?

IceAge, :hi: thank you very much for your great work here. :2thumbsup:

I think birds are individual like we are. So far I've only seen this behavior with Anna. Usually she has a spruce branch in her beak.
Like every year, I think this year, too, that she will starve to death. But it won't happen. :laugh: As soon as the baby hatches, Andris is hyperactive :whistling:
What I have noticed is that from year to year it is becoming more difficult for the birds to find enough food at all. They are now looking at the meadows and field edges. Flying low! And not afraid of people! This means it has become extremely difficult for you to feed their young. The fields and meadows are over-fertilized and poisoned with pesticides, herbicides, fungicides and thus "dead land"
That everything is dead can be seen from the fact that not a molehill can be seen over many kilometers of meadows and fields.

I hope Liz01 is wrong, truly, but it has been a thin feeding for Anna of late.

I hope warmer weather increases rodent activity.

Hatching is due when? I have lost track.
