9:19 bird flew on the tree top. Mika? is chirping.

I think it was a magpie

[Liz01]

9:41 adult lands on the left branch. Eaglets are calling

[ame]

thank you Liz and Sonchik!
now there should be the correct video.

yes, the bird was a magpie.

[ame]

10:52:33 a big bird flew by from right to left. it looked like an eagle. it flew to the direction of the Fish Market. in the end it made curves in the sky approximately in the area which i have marked with a pink ellipse.

[Liz01]

11:31 fishie by Raimis It is a nice size fish and still alive

11:34 I think Rika has grabbed the fish.

11:36 Raimis tries to take the fish

[highlander]

11:31 Nice fishie served by Raimis.

The older sibling is obviosly hungry, but Raimis dont feed.

[Liz01]

Rika still holds the fishie
We have to be patient. they are learning to handle with a fish.

[Liz01]

11:42 Raimis starts feeding

looks like, Mika does not get anything. She is laying in a good position. She got almost nothing yesterday. And today it was not enough for both.
Rika is behind Mika..

[ame]

i had to reboot...
Rika has probably hit Mika on the head so that he is hiding it. ...


yes, Rika hit Mika right away.


Mika hiding.


now Rika is climbing on top of Mika's back.

Mika crawled to the back of the nest to be out of the reach of Rika's beak. Rika is eating...

[ame]

Raimis brought the fish. Rika hit Mika. then Raimis waited for Milda to come and take over...
11:39 he almost began to feed but decided to wait more....


11:42 he began to feed Rika who was almost lying on Mika's back. Mika was hiding his head from Rika...


11:52 Raimis continued feeding Rika.


12:04 Raimis continued feeding Rika. at some Mika crawled slowly and carefully to the back of the nest behind Raimis.
12:07 Mika got at least one piece. ... yes, he is eating now. it was a big fish, big enough for two for brunch.

[ame]

12:17 feeding over.
12:18 Raimis flew out.




Mika has a nice round crop, too.
but it could be rounder.


Mika started to clean the nest of all smallest remains of the fish. apparently he was still hungry.
Rika pooped.

[ame]

i have now some videos from yesterday.

16:02 Rika made WE.


18:45 the fish delivery which i lost but Liz made a video of it. Rika ate herself as if she had been eating herself for ages.

if i had known that there was a videos of this i could have gone to bed a lot earlier.

19:23 Raimis brought some hay. (my engineer had restarted recording. )
19:27 he flew away.

[Abigyl]

Yes Ame ! It was a very violent feeding for Mika

She had some food but first she got a strong reminder of the black days, on her head and neck.
And the best is still to come...
Rika, like her older sister, plucked his feathers from different areas. Later she found the scales of the Carp.

It won't be easy on the nest. Before she respected dad but now she attacked him too.

LIZ, go home! you have 2 or 3 BS

[ame]

20:44 Rika pooped and Mika pooped. then they played with some hay together. they also made WE.


21:36 Milda brought a green twig. she went tothe top branch.

[ame]

21:39 Mika pooped.


21:53 Milda came down to the nest but returned back to the top branch.

[ame]

22:01 Milda came down to the nest. this time she stayed.


22:10 Milda called. then a big bird flew over the nest. Chrissy made pictures of this. thank you!

Milda followed the bird with her eyes. i think that this bird had to be Raimis.

[ame]

22:27 Rika pooped. Mika pooped.


23:40 an airplane flew over, illuminated by sunlight, just like a day or two ago (i'll check later).


edit: yes! also yesterday a plane flew over at the same time.
