Kergu isn't doing much. He seems relaxed.
Some preening.
Some nest work.
Some resting.

Treia,
The lady is pretty, isn't she?
Yes, she's pretty, and looks a bit like Kergu too, so maybe they'll become a couple, or maybe they already are. However, Kergu has a better year than last year, and looks happier.

Kergu watches someone, then sings his song.
It is not clear why he is singing.

13:30 a black stork ring 7153. Nurme!
He looks at the nest and the surroundings.
13:31 does ps on the nest edge.
He does not sing. This is not his nest. He knows the master of the house.
But he straightens the edge of the nest.

13:42 The BS flies away.
Unfortunately, the microphone always fails just when things get exciting. It scratched particularly beautifully and loudly
while Nurme visited the nest.

Hello everyone
Nice that Nurme came to visit.
He looks great.
Yes, Hulbi, Inspector Nurme not only thoroughly checked the nest, but also the surrounding area.
Nurme's arrival.
Is everything OK on the right?
And how are things on the left?

Could it be that the transmitters are interfering with the microphone?Swenja wrote: June 5th, 2024, 3:15 pm Unfortunately, the microphone always fails just when things get exciting. It scratched particularly beautifully and loudly

I am not a tech guru but it could be a plausible explanation. It usually scratches when Kergu is around as well.
