Someone or something scared M1. He stayed on the nest and covered the egg.

[Sappheira]

13:26
Iiris turns the egg and becomes like a ball.





She's hot?

[Sappheira]

12:40 - 16:15
Iiris stays on the nest all the time. She loudly asks for fish, but... there is no answer.

[Sappheira]

16:17
M1 brought fresh fish. Hungry Iiris flew off to dinner.
But M1 doesn't look full, his stomach looks empty...

[Sappheira]

17:14
M1 flew away with alarm signals.
17:16
Iiris flew to the nest and covered the egg.

[Sappheira]

18:34
Our silent Iiris today does not stop calling M1.
At some point, she could not stand it and flew out of the nest, M1 immediately appeared and covered the egg.

[Sappheira]

19:25
Iiris flew onto the camera stand and continued to loudly, very loudly ask for fish.

M1 stood on the edge of the nest in complete confusion: What? What am I doing wrong????
Iiris went down to the nest and showed him: Look, here, here, there should be a fish in your claws.
M1: Where?
Iiris: RIGHT HERE!

M1 flew away... We wait further...
I apologize for this loose interpretation, but in my eyes it looked like this.

[Sappheira]

44 minutes later
20:09
The long-awaited fish stuck to the nest.
M1 remained to cover the egg, Iiris flew away.

[Sappheira]

[Sappheira]

21:45
M1 flew away.
21:47
Iiris has arrived.

[Sappheira]

22:00 - 23:11
Over the past hour, Iiris stood up several times to turn the egg and just stood there and looked at it. Perhaps she didn’t look, but listened. Could it be that the chick started scratching its shell? I don’t know, but she stands for a long time and looks at the egg...



The second and third pictures were taken at different times. iIris stands like this.

[Sappheira]

Good morning everybody
