Latvian WtE nest webcamera Juras-erglis Durbe 2022

[ame]

12:15 a crested tit on the upper left branch. flew away.
then another tit.
correction: both were blue tits. . there were also a lot of voices of other little birds, too: at least of nuthatch and willow tit.


12:21:10 a fake eagle again.
12:25:52 kak! by a fake eagle. then 'normal' jay's calls.

[ame]

12:36 a roe deer started barking.... a black woodpecker was calling in the forest, too. they and great spotted woodpeckers together with jays are the most common and loudest singers in the forest in this time of the year. and one must not forget the nuthatch!

[ame]

13:36:25 an insect flew from the right and landed on the left side of the lens.
after a few seconds the insect flew away.

[ame]

14:40 a jay visited. she called loud first (be careful with the volume!)

[ame]

16:07 a treecreeper called and then climbed up the trunk in seconds. then voices of nuthatch(es) and willow tit(s) and other little birds (?).

[ame]

17:19:53 a few screams by a tawny owl.


18:07:08 the camera went to sleep.

Good Morning ame and all

Thanks for reporting

Happy 1st. Advent

snowy nest

[Liz01]

EDIT: 8:15:25 it came from under the nest


8:15:30 squirrel on the right branch


ame

[ame]

good morning Liz and all.

8:15 a squirrel.
- i'm your echo Liz.


8:17 someone is dropping snow from the top. the squirrel is still up there...

[ame]

8:22 more snow dropped from the top.. the squirrel came down to the top branch.
she was eating something but not cones. maybe the tips of the twigs.
8:26 the squirrel finally left.

[Liz01]

8:23 squirrel on the left

so, no I'm the echo of you

BTW: the camera time is behind the normal time for me, almost 3 minutes!

the pictures






EDIT: ame, the time difference is for me on the youtube stream too.

[ame]

yes Liz, the delay of the camera time relative to the "real" time has been long since tha last change, since the 'sleeping time' in the nights has been applied.
it's 2 min about 40 s for me (today). i think it changes a little from day to day.

the delay is perhaps not so big in the YT-window. many times i have tried to write about an observation there and there have already been one or two comments about it long time before i get there.

more snow is falling slowly...

[ame]

in the afternoon the weather turned warmer and snow began to melt.

18:05:52 the camera went to sleep.

Good Morning ame and all

7:17:14 who is "calling" in the nest a owl? or a cat (very short calls)

[ame]

good morning Liz and all!
7:17 that sounded a bit like an angry cat.
... but i don't think cats can be found this deep in the forest. perhaps it was a raccoon dog? (but mostly they sound different?) was it even a voice from someone's mouth or was it a snapping stick?

[ame]

10:03:about 40 a deer or an elk ran by on the right. it could have been a wild boar as well.


10:07:00 again a big deer or an elk ran by from left to right on the right.
correction: two animals!
10:06:10 there was a voice (a bark) which could belong to a wild boar.
10:06:36 the first animal was not very big.
10:06:59 the second was bigger. - they could have been a female elk/ red deer with a calf.
Ina Jaunošāne​ in YT chat thinks that they were wild boar. that is quite possible.

[ame]

15:24 - 15:26 click-clack'ing sounds... is it sticks breaking while someone is walking in the forest? or is it two pairs of antlers banging against each other?

[Susanne]

ame! If you go to Hirvekaamera ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uFlXZ55S1zw) , you can hear pretty much the same sounds from 17:05 on. There are currently many stags around (and some hinds as well).

[ame]

yes, Susanne, the sounds were similar as i have heard at hirvekaamera.
antlers make a more "dry" sound than breaking sticks. they are also similar all the time. each stick makes randomly a different sound than another sticks.

17:26-7 footsteps and voices of wild boar. Oink-oink!

18:04:38 the camera went to sleep.
