Today morning here is -18 C. Based on weather forecast there will come 1-2 very cold nights and after that gets little warmer. But WTEs are adapted with this cold.

Linda sparkles in the sunlight :)

Sulev came and has taken over while Linda has now flown off. I think Sulev brought a twig... and he's now faffing over the egg

09:44h Sulev visited Linda. I thought he brought a twig too. But VLC was jamming so I couldn't see it for sure.

yes. Sulev brought a long stick when he came at 9:43.


this time Linda was happy to get up and strecht her wings.

Sulev & Linda.

Linda leaves (first to the branch).

Linda hopped to the branch on the left.
grand jeté.




then she took off for breakfast and Sulev stays at home, taking care of the egg.

it's amazing how VLC jamms exactly at the very moment when there is some action...

i think that there were a lot of little birds entertaining Linda and she was talking to them.
i think i heard voices of a jay and great tits and a magpie. once i managed to capture some black&white bird. i think it must have been a woodpecker, probably a great spotted. it was too far to make a definate identification, but there are a lot of them in the forest.




also in the feeding place the forest is crawling with great spotted woodpeckers. i think it was Liis who wrote earlier that great spotted woodpeckers have migrated largely this winter. this migration is not a regular, yearly migration from wintering areas to nesting areas and back, but an irregular flood of birds from one area to some other within their normal distribution areas.
