21:02: The WTE on the p-branch leaves.
21:05: The second WTE on the lower branch at the right moves a little inward - out of sight (beneath the greenery).
21:09:11: ... and leaves, flying straight ahead over the meadow, short bend to the right and vanishing in the dark of the tree tops (= dark area at the right which looks a bit like a cave.).

17:41: Hop-step-jump - a woodpecker flies in from the right and lands on the middle branch. Great spotted woodpecker - 'dendrocopus major'?

- By the way: this little bushy weed in the nest bowl, blooming white - could this be a White Nettle (lamium album)?

20:00 ff.: Very fine and agitated vocal display by Mr Woodpecker - very invisible, too. (The woodpecker had been on the left, then on the right before and had meticulously inspected the bark of the branches.) - And just when I thought we might have some fun now - the cam turns into 'spinach absolue' :mrgreen: at 20:05 ...

14:13: A WTE lands somewhere in the tree. Not on the right, but above the nest bowl, because at 14:14/15, the girl plunges down:

... and is currently - at 14:38 - perching on the p-branch.

Good morning to all, have a nice Sunday!

The day starts with little birds; shortly after 06:00, a notable number of tits visits the nest. Long time, no see: marsh tits (poecile palustris)! They are especially interested in the little nettle bush.

Good morning Matsalu, it's Bird of Prey-Day!

09:15: Enter from beneath the nest - and now I need your help :help: , I identified this bird as a Black Kite (milvus migrans) -and first perching on the p-branch - test-test-test (he is stepping on the branch with one foot): good branch.

Image

Then hopping into the nest:

and moving to a branch at the right.

...and moving back onto the nest and then again on the p-branch, where he spends some time with preening, until:

09:28:40: The landlady comes home - 'Smiley'! She comes directly from the woods (position: roughly 1 o'clock).

Image

She then hops into the nest and is busy with preening:

Image

around 10:28: Comfy position
