[ame]

14:16 little birds on the right branches. i think they were goldcrests but they were a bit too quick and too far to see well enough.

a nuthatch was talking loud nearby.

14:53:30 a crow flew to our top.
14:53:15 a little bird on the back edge of the nest. the bird was very small and very jumpy, and a lot the same colour as the Left Sister behind her. a goldcrest?

November 8th.

Good Morning ame and everyone!

ame, thank you for reporting and videos

6:05:49 the camera starts working.
6:29:58 the forest workers are working. It sound far away? Maybe it's a different sound. Is it unusual to only hear it once?

6:36:08 a tawny owl is calling
6:36:50 she starts again.. dogs are barking
6:37 the tawny owl is still calling
6:38 she sounds further away ? or she's turning the head
6:39:29 a black woodpecker from far? It was a short call. the tawny owl is calling too.
6:40:20 the tawny owl sounds near again
6:43 kiwitt, kiwitt.. another tawny owl?
6:44 still calling
6:45:08 someone under the nest tree? no steps just a noise
6:47:00 forestworker, but they are far
6:47:22 a deer? is barking. Is it disturbed by the forest workers? That was an alarm bark
6:51:41 loud bang.. the forest workers
6:52:35 loud calling tawny owl.
6:56 they are close to the nest again! The eagles are loyal to their territory. They like to spend the night near their nest. I think they will no longer be here
6:59 they are loud!
7:00 loud, loud

I'm going to stop "listening" to what's happening at the nest. As long as they work so close to the nest, we won't see or hear the eagles. Maybe it will be over tomorrow?

7:59 it seems they are gone?

[ame]

good morning!

no machine sounds right now. it's a bit strange that they have these rather long pauses in their work. the first day was more 'normal' with continuous noise.

this is not the first time that forest work is done here nearby. in one of the early years they were cutting trees nearby. that happened in January if i remember right. (there's no guarantee of that!). Milda and Raimis came to breed normally. this is earlier in the autumn/winter. they will return.

i must say though that i'd rather listen to car and motorbike noise from the racing track all day instead of this noise. in that case i'd know where the noise is coming and that it would stay there!

btw: the calls at 6:39 were not by a black woodpecker. it sounded more like a human's voice. black woodpeckers were sleeping at that time.

[ame]

7:17 a tawny owl called. then a mallard called. then a tawny owl again.


i didn't make a clip of the earlier calls since the owl was farther and called so long.

[ame]

7:19:23 what bird was this??

[ame]

7:22 Ina Jaunošāne heard a pygmy owl calling.
7:26 again.
thank you Ina!

[ame]

8:46 a little bird on the right branches. a goldcrest?

[ame]

9:55 Per Tejsner hear an eagle calling very far.
thank you Per!
that was a female eagle's voice.

[ame]

10:10 Mārtiņš D​​ heard the eagles call very far.
thank you Mārtiņš D​​!

[ame]

​​10:20:08 a spider walked by the lens on the left side.

[ame]

10:57 a great tit visited.

[ame]

11:14 Digna125 heard a pygmy owl.
11:19 Ina Jaunošāne​​ heard a pygmy owl.
thank you Digna125 and Ina!
11:25 a pygmy owl whistled again.

[ame]

13:08:about 30 bird's voice but what bird?
i suppose it had to be a woodpecker but which?


- this bird would go to S-America, Amazonia, with BirdNet.

it was quiet for a short moment when this bird called.
the noise comes close and then goes away. then it come back again, periodically. they must be harvesting along a line and then come back the other way, back and forth.

[ame]

14:23:07 a fox barked far. 14:23:30 again.
​​14:26:48 was that a pygmy owl? ​​yes!
then a fox again.


- i have thought i have heard the fox many times also earlier but i have not been certain because of the machine noise.
