She plucks out a delicate feather.




Back in the nest and just look around. Fiddle a little again.

[Polly]

07:16 - 18 Ruudi brings a stick, fiddles.


'51/52 now brings a little feather duster. A green shoot of a fir.

Nüüd on kullipesas tekkinud probleem selles, et hoolas Ruudi on pesa pununud väga hoogsalt ja see on kasvatatud nii kõrgeks, et pesapõhja enam kaamerast nähagi pole ning ei pruugi märgatagi, kuna esimene muna pessa pudeneb.

GT:

Now the problem that has arisen in the hawk's nest is that the diligent Ruudi has braided the nest very vigorously and it has grown so high that the bottom of the nest is no longer visible from the camera and may not even be noticed because the first egg falls into the nest.

We need an egg to test this.

[Hellem]

13:19 - 13:21 Ruudi with a stick , 13:25 - 13:26 another stick

[Polly]

13:25 - 13:26 another stick

If Alla continues to dawdle, Ruudi will close everything again.

[Hellem]

15:18 - 15:19 Ruudi with a piece of bark

[Polly]

16:14 - 17 Ruudi brings a delicate branch and decorates around.







Ruudi builds a picket fence. Is he expecting visitors?

Hi Polly-Hellem and everyone.

The first sounds of the day were made from 6:27 to 6:31, 6:34
As soon as Ruudi left the nest (6:36) there was a pairing.

Greetings

[Polly]

March 27th

Good morning everyone!

08:27 Is it correct that neither of the pair has been in the nest yet?
(but to hear )


09:20 still nobody

[Polly]

10:58/59 Good morning Ruudi!

[Hellem]

Polly, Emi7 and everyone!

11:42 - 11:43 Ruudi

Hellem
It is a good sign that Alla stays away from the nest. Not true?
Alla as well as H21 stayed away from the nest 1 - 2 days before oviposition started.
It must be something special for Ruudi not to build the nest.
(But their calls are good to hear.)

13:04 Well, they mate
...and Ruudi in... and out.

'06 and in. ...and out.

***

13:28 mating
Everything is okay with them.

Ruudi in with a small pine branch.

[Hellem]

14:22 - 14:26 Ruudi
14:32 Alla lands, she has a piece of bark with her

[Polly]

14:32 Alla brings bark.


*like a bullet...
