5:55 she is looking to the right and calls
6:02:40 fake eagle is calling? Milda is looking to the right
6:03:23 Milda pays attention to the right .. there was calling again. Long neck


6:04 again calling...
6:08 she still pays attention to the right

[Liz01]

6:18:30 she starts calling loud (could be there was someone flying on the left upper corner? there was a wing visible? I will check it)
OK, that was Voldis - he is flying in an arc to the left




6:19 she stands up .. boah, her underwear is still wet .

[Liz01]

6:19:32 Voldis flew backwards into the nest


and landed on the branch - Milda flew away. she landed on the OO Tree

[ame]

good morning!
thank you Liz!

clear blue sky!
the sky was clear already at dawn but it was still rather windy.
5:29 Milda talked with her head under wing.
5:38 again.
5:46 she woke up.

[ame]

5:49 Milda talked. then she put her head under wing.
5:55 she woke up and called, or talked louder.

[ame]

6:02 - 6:04 there were bird's voices, i think a fake eagle and also the platypus.
6:04 cranes clattered.

[ame]

6:18 Voldis flew by and Milda called.
6:19 the change: Voldis in and Milda to Observation Oak. Voldis rolled the eggs.

[ame]

6:21:58 Milda took off from the Observation Oak. she flew to the right first but then curved left and vanished behind the poop branch. swans were calling...

[ame]

7:25 Voldis rolled the eggs.

[ame]

7:39 Voldis rolled the eggs.


there was no egg rolling at 7. there was a miss print in the post by Liz.

[ame]

7:52 Voldis rolled the eggs.

[ame]

8:08 Voldis rolled the eggs.

[ame]

8:18 Voldis turned a little. the eggs needed adjustment.

[ame]

8:26 Voldis rolled the eggs a little.
8:30 he had to turn a little. cubic eggs.

[ame]

9:02:45 two whooper swans flew by and called.

[ame]

9:06:55 two swans flew over the Swan Pond from left to right to the other side of the meadow and then they turned.
9:07:17 the swans flew back over the meadow from right to left and over the Swan Pond again.
9:07:41 one swan flew from left followed by another. they disappeared behind the trunk. Voldis looked at them over his shoulder.
... then a lot of calls and platy-platy-platy-plat sounds of swans taking off.... then more loud calls. it sounded like a swan conflict. did the two find other swans take off?
9:09:18 a lonely swan flew by. no, there were two, the first at 9:09:09 high in the sky. both flew to left.


maybe there were only two of them who made a landing on the Swan Pond and then flew away.

[ame]

Voldis was tired and very sleepy. he has probably not slept well either although he wasn't soaking on the nest.
9:37 he yawned.

[ame]

10:02:05 one swan flew over the meadow near the forest from left to right and another flew straight over the nest tree. then a third (!) flew over the meadow from left to right.
10:02:42 a fourth (?!) swan flew high in sky from right to left. 6 s later one swan flew lower from to right and one from right to left over the meadow.
then a lot of calls....
10:04:57 one swan flew from left to right near the forest.


there were more than two swans. probably two pairs.

[ame]

10:24 Voldis saw something in the back...
10:24:10 a big bird flew far above the trees on the right side on our top and then to the left. that was probably an eagle (Milda).
Voldis got up quite suddenly. then he flew out.
10:25:20 Voldis back and
10:25:25 Milda flew to the top. Voldis called.
