16:54:00 (about) a big (?) bird high in the sky in the right top corner.
nää... the bird wasn't so big after all. he/she took of from the top of the spruce on the right. probably a wood pigeon.
16:52:54 the bird flew to the top.
16:54:00 the bird flew away.

18:46 an eagle writes mega2 in the YT chat. he didn't bring anything.
the eagle seemed to be Mr L as mega2 wrote.
he saw the new stick and moved it. "someone has been sleeping in my bed."

23:29 flight calls of cranes flying over.
this is unusual (or is it?). cranes favour daytime. they are big and heavy birds and need sunny days for migration. they usually fly in the afternoons when thermals have developed and they can take advantage of the lift of warm air.

good morning!
the night was very windy and there was too much noise to find any sounds or voices which were not especially loud. i found the above crane's calls by accident.
6:15 a pygmy owl called rather far.
6:26 again.

6:30 a pygmy owl was singing far. the voice was strange in a way. it seemed to come from behind a corner and the bottom of a barrel or through some strange filter.
6:31 a normal, loud call of a pygmy owl. blackbirds were talking...
6:32 a loud call again.
6:33 again a call near. a blackbird sang a funny subsong.
6:36 again a pygmy owl called nearby.

6:37 an eagle flew in. Mr L probably.
a pygmy owl called. for a while the eagle looked at the east where the day was dawning.
6:38 some nest work. the tail looked clean.
then looking around at the forest...

6:40 the eagle lifted the second new stick to a new place.
it's funny how both Mr L and the raven yesterday seemed to know that those two sticks brought by the strange young eagle were something extra on the nest.
the eagle walked to the left rim of the nest and was looking around....
6:45:02 a pygmy owl called.

the eagle stood on the rim and was looking around.... the eastern sky became redder and redder.
6:47 the eagle flew away and showed his tail reasonably well. it was Mr L.

7:00 a bird voice which was similar to the voice which Sonchik heard a few days ago. Sonchik suspected that the voice belonged to a hawk but i wasn't sure. now i suspect that this was a hawk but again i'm not sure. Sonchik was probably right on the first time. (although the called seemed to have lower pitch than this )
right after the first voice some jay's voices. that's always suspicious.
7:00:23 a bird with long tail flew from the spruce on the right to the top or by the top of our tree.
7:00:30 another bird flew to or over our top. this looked like a jay.
a second later another bird flew after. that had to be a sparrowhawk.
two birds flew away from the top. then one more.
jays shrieked and more calls of the hawk.
jays returned and there was a third bird, too, but i could not see the sparrowhawk properly.

indeed there was a flash of two or three wing feathers in the top left corner. and some more birds flying around. i made a longer video which hopefully contains everything. to be on the safe side this overlaps with the next video, i.e. ends after the next begins.

7:06:41 a bird flew to the top. a sparrowhawk? or a jay??
7:07:03 a jay flew to the right branch.
7:07:05 the hunt went on! another jay flew by (from the top??) and a sparrowhawk flew after him/her.
jays flew around our tree and the spruces on the right
7:08 the hawk flew to out top. then to the top branch.

10:34 Mr L back to the left branch.
he began to preen. he has two feathers with rather big black spots on the tips on both edges of the tail, in the outer corners of the tail. they look more pronounced than in the spring. maybe the feathers are new.

10:49 Mr L flew out.
the light was almost as bad as it can get. this is the problem: if two bad pictures are combined is the result any better than the single pictures?
he flew to the direction of the Fish Market on the left.
