August 8

good morning!

it has been a normal August morning: wood pigeons have been singing but that's about all.

6:08 a jay shrieked in the forest. then a great spotted woodpecker called....
6:11 a jay called closer a few times. the woodpecker continued till 6:12 and then flew farther.
all stayed out of sight.

6:46 cranes called far, then near and then very far.


6:58 onward rain for about 15 min.

[ame]

3:07 a tawny owl female called in the forest.

4:35 a pygmy owl started whistling. the sky was turning blue in the east.


the owl continued whistling till 4:40.

5:49 a wood pigeon sang in the forest.
5:50:24 a fairly big bird flew to the top of the spruce on the right.
a wood pigeon sang a few times...
5:55:48 a strange bird's voice, the "platypus".
5:55:35 the bird flew away from the top and a crow called. the bird was dark, not a wood pigeon.
then a wood pigeon sang the same way as earlier.


i think that the bird who visited the spruce top was a crow (and that she was the platypus).
beautiful sunrise.


6:42 little birds (tits and nuthatches) were talking nearby, and also jays started making a lot of noise. all stayed out of sight.

7:12 a little greyish-green bird visited. a Phylloscopus of some sort, a chiffchaff or a willow warbler.

[ame]

7:13 - 7:14 2 little greyish-green birds visited. first they were in the back of the nest, then in the front. both the same sort as earlier: chiffchaffs or a willow warblers.

[ame]

7:40 onward nuthatch' voices... maybe more than one.
7:42:20 a nuthatch from the top to the nest.
7:42:48 a goldcrest!


maybe even three goldcrests. the first flew to the right branch. then one flew down from the top to the nest. and another. the first flew away over the nest to the left.


7:43:45 a nuthatch and a goldcrest!

[ame]

7:44:26 a nuthatch flew down from the top and began to work somewhere under the nest.
7:47 the nuthatch flew away (invisibly). a great spotted woodpecker began to talk.

[ame]

8:58 a wood pigeon to the top branch. then another to the top.
8:59 the second from the top down and chased the first away.


the first flew to the spruce on the right and probably landed there. maybe the 2nd is an eager male?
yes, he is a male.
9:01 he began to sing.

[ame]

9:08:03 a pigeon flew away from the spruce on the right.
soon the pigeon from our tree followed.

[ame]

the Moon has risen above the forest top.
