Kergu didn't return for the night.

I guess he embraced the single batchelor life and we will see him less frequently in the nest now...

he moves some moss, changes his position and is observing the surrounding, resting

11.12 preening started
Image

11.22 Kergu again sings/calls
Image

he moves twigs, moss and is calling again - is here someone nearby?
