17:01 Teo has not yet returned to the nest,
the stump is covered with hay, probably since this morning,
when he brought that bunch of nest material

About 19:25/19:26 i heard an osprey calling near, two times, but no one to see
19:26 someone landed on the cam stand, i think it is the osprey i've heard
19:28 is still on the cam stand, i hear scratching noises, no one to see
19:31 i hear two far calls, of a tawny owl (?)
19:36 a little bird is visiting, a greenfinch ?
or is it a siskin ?
19:43 the osprey (?) is still on the cam stand, moving, but nothing to see, maybe flew off now ?
19:49 no, it is still there, i hear knocking noises from the cam stand and nest is wobbling
19:56 still there

08:12 he is tracking someone flying behind the cam from the left to the right
if it is a female ???
yes, there is an osprey flying in the upper right corner of the screen
but it only flew by, not interested in the nest and poor Teo :(
Teo continued working on the nest, he is working so hard

Good morning Abigyl, Hellem and Balistar!
Teo is working and waiting...he doesn't give up...so we don't, too.
he is a bit dirty because he dug again the nest bowl.
