[macdoum]

The nest is empty for now. I see thay have built the nest up very well.
Mutikluti,thank you for the pics. Goodness the fish are very small.

[macdoum]

Piret came back,I didn't hear a sound.
No wonder my sound was off.

edit; She cheeped a little and now she's flown away.

[macdoum]

Piret = F is back on the nest. She is arranging the nestbowl,digging down in there,sits to try it and arranging again.

Urmas..

The male ha just been twice to mate but it seems he has NO IDEA how its done.

[Olga]

It looked like this, was this not mating? I supposed so:
18:59....

[Urmas]

Maybe its too early - just after long journey.
Needs some time to familiarize again with home things. But its promising, I suppose.

[Bea]

But it is clear that his Queen of Heart has arrived

Edit: just a new try of mating happened .... hmmm ..... he better should try it with a fish-present first

[Felis silvestris]

They are at least trying, though right now it does not looks that "successful"
I just read they mate for life!
