Not much happening at present
This morning's wakeup.
Juvie copying on the nest:
The another:
One lazy-bones:
This was Telyn having just flown up to the perch with alarm calls - no follow-up that I could detect:
IMAGICAT
There were a few intruder alerts thru the morning, I couldn't see anyone the one time they scanned the skies.
When I suddenly came upon this I thought it was a magnificent wingercise but it was Telyn dropping down from her overcam perch:
Is lazy-bones KA3?
Legs and wings stiff as boards:
KA1 getting height:
And doing the side-glide:
patily said:Supér-duper captures SCYLLA........do people still say that?
I think I said it twice yesterday on Manton Bay - and I didn't even hyphenate it, lazy mare ;)
WAKEUP (brightened)
KA1 (I bet) flapped:
Telyn stretched (dang, I nearly cut her tail off):
Telyn flew up to the perch:
And flew off while KA1(?) flapped again, it had a good session:
Then they all flapped 'n flapped but I couldn't capture them all with their wings raised at the same time.
Monty flew in from behind us with a flounder for BREAKFISH:
A juvie nabbed it and Monty flew up to his perch:
The juvie looking at us has just lost interest in the fish and another has taken over - very civilised:
I love this stance:
It led to quite a high leap:
Here's another soon after:
My downloader cut off after 6 hours while I was asleep, so I may be missing interesting things you reported, PATILY.
Yes I am missing those events, PATILY, as that download cut off @ 06:09 and I didn't wake up for another hour!
Monty brought another fish and waited for Telyn but she didn't arrive so he left it on the nest - 2 hours later Telyn had still not been on the nest:
Kind regards, Ann
