Kerli airs the eggs.



There is nothing to see. But perhaps the chick is already fighting its way out of the rest of the egg. In any case,
the pip hole is already a crack hole.

How wonderful!

Kergu looks delighted and excited. He covers all.





Kerli flies away. She was more then 27 hours in the nest.
