Not sure if Urmas is on his way or not. He will probably not write about it, we just have to wait and see. Anyway, Kaia is still standing there like a stone statue.

Oh there is a note from Urmas in LK: the operation will not be executed today- no need to risk frightening Kaia.

07.26 There's a sound like someone touched the microphone or landed on a branch very near the microphone. It was a loud noise.
07.27 Kaia comes. She brought water and some fish. Feeding (1)
I think there wasn't much food this time. The chicks are still begging very loudly.
Kaia stands on the curved branch.
07.32 Kaia goes to the lower branch.
07.38 Kaia flies away.

10.38 A pine cone falls from above. It hits one of the storklets and bounces to the nest rim.
10.40 A tree falls down in the forest. There must be some dry trees around..
The wind is getting stronger. A storm may come soon
