​16:00:14 a loud crash! did a tree fall or a big branch break?
16:18:30 again a loud crash! another branch?

16:00:14 you are right! it sounds like a breaking branch!

the 2nd time it didn't sound like a breaking branch.
it sounded like a larger sheet of ice had slipped off.
I can't explain it better.

Liz, maybe the second branch dropped step by step? there are a lot of trees and maybe their branches slowed the dropping?
or on the first time a branch dropped and on the second a whole tree fell? it makes a looooong crash.

this was an exciting video although nothing else happened than two trees were felled.

18:42 a fox was barking in the forest.


- i think that the Moon was peeking through the clouds every now and then during the evening.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 13th

Good Morning!

08:03 It is still very dark...

[ame]

good morning!

Liz heard again a crash in the forest at 6:32:54. it wasn't as big as the crashes yesterday. maybe a smaller branch (but big) fell.

i heard wild boar at 9:40 and 9:45. they are back.

10:06:24 oink, .. oink, ... oink.

[Liz01]

13:46 Forest work cut down trees. It sounds far away
A day without an eagle. A day without work on the PC.

ame, you heard an oink, oink I love these animals.

this was one of the boring winter days when nothing happens.

Good Morning

it looks like it will be a stormy day.

the snow in the nest has melted



11:12 there is very strong wind

[ame]

good morning!

quite a storm!
9:58:33 i heard a wild boar voice. when i searched the voice on video i found two pigs running by from left to right.
... now i looked more backwards. there were more pigs earlier, at least two pigs at 9:57:15 low on the right corner and lower edge. (before and after this the wind was too hard and it was difficult to see.)
there were at least 4 boar, maybe even 5.

[ame]

the hard winds continued till the evening... moonlight was shining in the forest when the camera turned off.

Mr L


9:25:29 eagle voice from far?
9:26:27 again?

[ame]

good morning!

thank you Liz for the pictures!

8:31 the strange subadult male arrived. he didn't have very thin ankles but the beak belonged clearly to a male. he was also rather small. (Milda looks huge compared to him when she stands on the same spot on the nest)
the underparts were still very spotty, but the tail was rather white already and also the back was rather uniformly grey-brown. that's why i think he was about 4 - 5 Calendar years (3rd or 4th winters) old.


unlike other visitors he didn't move sticks around. he spent his time looking around.

[ame]

8:50 the stranger jumped to the left rim and shower his underside in better light.


8:52:07 the eagle saw something on the right...
8:52:57 Mr L arrived and chased the stranger away. it seemed that Mr L knew that the stranger was not really dangerous but he had to be kicked out any way.
Mr L called... then he flew after the stranger to make sure that he'll fly far enough.

[ame]

...
9:25:29 eagle voice from far?
9:26:27 again?

... or a fake eagle near?
there was a jay's voice at 9:27:13.
i'm inclined to think that this was a jay who got inspired by the eagles' visit earlier.

[ame]

10:43 Mr L flew in.
10:44 he jumped to the left branch and wiped his beak.
10:45 then to the top branch.


11:39 he is still on the top branch, keeping guard.

[Abigyl]

Good quiet morning!!

Little one was nice

[ame]

12:14 Mr L made a big ps. he has eaten well.


12:56 he pooped again. this time he made a poop ring.


13:04 he turned on the branch.
13:05 he turned again.

13:08 Mr L flew away.

[Liz01]

13:08 Mr L left the nest tree
