ESTONIA Pärnu county (Kergu + Kerli)

[marika.solo]

- rainy windy night



- the nest really need "update" - new soft material + some twigs
- the bottom of the nest is already trampled and the water (doesn't) flow down

[marika.solo]

some moving - position change in the morning

- after pooping back to the best/warmest place between siblings

- wing flapping by our Benjamin

FEEDING by KERGU at 18.33

dangerous situation (one sec) - little one almost slipped from the nest (probably in connection with the fight over the fish, which he was pulling strongly towards him/her and his/her sibling pulled it out of his bill)



here we see the mentioned fish (to increase the nest is really very important - the time of jumping is getting very close)

[marika.solo]

- some sunshine in the late evening

Ringing in Kergu's nest will probably be delayed until it's possible to equip a transmitter, to avoid multiple disturbing to the nest. (info by our Madli shared via email on Tue 1 Jul, 18:55 )

Hi Bozena, thank you again

[marika.solo]

- they chirped (+ begging, nodding) around 08.53 and next
- strange BS is nearby? it seems someone is sitting above the nest - pooping down
- 09.57.30 BS away (nothing in camera view - behaviour of the chicks is "saying" this)
- chicks are sillent
