Good morning !
Thought Karl has forgotten to clean up a little or he wanted to have more discretion by putting some branches in front of the cam ;-)



But then came Kati to tidy up - *was my thought...
untill she came a second time and brought the next branch... :-)

9:57 shakes his plumage

10:01 her beak is open.


looks like she is very stressed. Poor Kati!
Male is preening himself
10:08 he shakes his plumage

Hello, everyone

Liz, thanks for the morning reports and pictures

09:39:16 OFAF is singing. He is annoying Kati.


10:09:50 A PS


10:10:57 OFAF is still there

What was that crunching sound at 10:01:50 ? Nothing was moving. Was the other male out of sight? I was afraid it was an egg but all was still.

10:04 her beak is open again. she is breathing heavily

The male is still out of sight- near the nest. He is preening himself.
he's more annoying than an adult

EDIT: Helen, The clack that you hear, he does with the beak. The eggs do not break so easily. You can drop an egg from 18 metre onto the forest floor. Nothing happens to it

thanks, Liz. After that, I heard little click sounds; it must have been him preening. I so wanted to think it was pips.

10:09 She stands up- went to the toilet and is digging in the nest , the male is singing

So close to hatching the chicks it is very big stress for Kati. You can see it. I do not like to see that.

I've to go

10:29 OFAF is still there. Kati gasps.

Thanks for your videos!

OFAF is the ring number of the young Latvian male

Good day to Karula Forest,
but oh no, OFAF came as soon as Karl II left?
Maybe he looked the situation somewhere in a nearby tree,
Hopefully Karl II will be back soon !
