wow, beautiful

22:06
The beauty flew out of the nest area

Pixtura catches

22:11
Again an Eagle Owl landing in!



It looks like the same bird.

I think..it's not Heinzl . So quiet

22:22
Tawny Owl is calling in the distance



I am off

Bea wrote:It could be the same young owl that Mamicja observed already yesterday.
21:05 And now she is again "bathing" in the nestbowl. *hihihi* She is going to make deep hole of it

I think it is the same owl I saw before, but this time paid a longer visit (even two)
Very interesting behaviour (it looked like diving in the nest bowl) and what a cuteness.






To recall I watched my record of ringing: all three owlets were ringed their left legs.

23:18
She took off, after she was here for more than one more hour.

And not a merest hint of vocalisation the whole time!

December 25

Merry christmas

7:25
an Female is calling few times in the distance

27. December
16:38
Male flew in



A female is answering in quite a distance, hardly to hear because of traffic sounds

16:43 - female is closer now, her calls are near and HE is changing his behaviour also, bowing in the nestbowl

16:46 - female landed in!



He is busy clucking in the nestbowl, and she is calling hoarse

16:49 - female came closer to the nestbowl and male took wings



Now she is boss of the nestbowl

16:52 - She is not banded, I am sure it were Heinzl and Lotte



She took off immediately after this snapshot.



Short before Heinzl takes off, one can see a glimpse of the ring on the right leg.

Oh, a late christmas visit of Heinzl and Lotte in the nestbowl.
Bea, thank you for the pictures and your comments.
Good to know, who' s the Boss!

It looked like: " It is my nest, get away from here"

Good catch of the moment, Mamicja

This behaviour seems to be part of their relationship, too - we saw it already several times now.
Whenever Lotte comes closer to Heinzl sitting in the nestbowl, he takes flight as fast as he can

16:36 Calling in the distance.

31. December

16:00 - male Eagle owl calling not so far away

16:17 Yes, Bea. He is saying "Goodbye 2014!"

16:51 He's coming in and shows his backside!


...now one eye is to be seen.




Only a short visit: three minutes.
Thank you for coming!
