In the morning at half past six the male brings his mate some ”tidbits“

 

Great tit        Rasvatihane       Parus major

 

Soon the incubation period starts and during that time the males feed their mates. We can already see a difference between the nesters in who conceal their eggs, and  how, during daytime.

.

I was asked to play child-minder to a seven-year-old chit of a girl. We watched multifilms and talked for at bit but as sunset approached we went into the forest for adventures. We walked and climbed in the trees when I suddenly noticed that we had reached the badger castle. I tried to explani what kind of place this was when I was suddenly told that someone had looked out of the mouth of the den opening that we were standing beside. With a slight smile I tried to find out what the creature looked like. The reply was very concrete: ”White and some black too!“  Was it the imagination of the child or did the badger really greet its visitors? It did make me a little envious.

Cuckoo

.I was in the country today in the forest near the Koidula (Värska) border post and heard the cuckoo calling. It called in the Kolodovitsa village forest at about two o’clock in the day. The weather was sunny and quite warm. I also found some false morels or turban fungi (Gyromitra esculenta). They however were very small

Turban fungus, Gyromitra esculenta
