Interesting things happening here on the Karl/Kati/?-nest... :unsure:
One question:
I see you are absolutely sure that the female is Kati. Why? Can someone tell me the typical characteristics?
I've put together three pictures that have been shown here as evidence.
these are tree pics of Kati :laugh: please look at her eye area

Hello, mogga :hi:

This is 3x Kati, yes.
This part is not well defined. And less dark. It looks a bit messy, if I may say so...
I hope this helps?

Thanks, Liz. I had to think about how to say (show) it too.

A young lover might be a little tiring. Maybe she has had a little too much amorous attention, this morning ... :mrgreen:

:rotf:

I would never have come home.

EDIT: But I did not mean that. I mean that females do not sing when they come to the nest (and nobody is in the nest)
When the male is there, they greet each other.

Unfortunately I won't have so much time for Irma and Ivo this year, Liz, but of course I'll stop by from time to time... :D

I know, I know.
Nevertheless, our good old Kati looks rather tired, at the moment. :D
