Hello everyone

​09.43.45 Notek arrived silently to his nest

continuation
- he is working with nest material and cleans the nest for a short while
- he is observing the surrounding and preening follows
- next observing the surrounding (to all directions - looking for Nutka?) and he is resting (10.00 still on the nest)
- Notek hesitated/rested very long time on the outer edge of the nest rim (to the right, near the tree trunk), ready to fly out???

[marika.solo]

- 10.22.49 stork on the nest is hissing for a short while (follows someone with his eyes and turns his whole body - someone flies around the nest?)
- 10.25.37 again hissing, 10.25.40 stork flew out in hurry from the nest (who was in the nest???) and Notka flew in (she has ring)
- 10.25.45 the stork is flying from right to the left, Notka is calling and at 10.26 she settled down (and is hissing, she moves the nest material)

by the behaviour of both storks, I believe that it was not Notek

Notka is still sitting in the nest

10.45.50 she stand up
Notka is resting (she is calm, the strange stork most probably flew away already)

continuation:

12.20 Notka is still on the nest - she is resting
13.02.45 Notka calls briefly and sits down again
13.09.51 pooping, stretching and resting ... preening follows
and resting, resting

14.11.08 and next short calls and she sits down again (14.11.20) and is moving the nest material to his body and again up (14.12.35): pooping, stretching the wings and she works with the nest material; 14.13.10 she starts observing the surrounding moves the nest material and at 14.13.44 Nutka again very cautiously is observing the surrounding; 14.15.19 she ruffles her plumage and calls, works with twigs and nest material (and is communicating in some way); 14.16.05 she settled down - 14.16.50 again up
14.16.59 Nutka flew away (it seems in hurry)

Her long stay is reminiscent of the storks' last visit to the nest in the season - Good by (or farewell) visit. We will see what next.

it is extremely interesting for me (in negative sense) that I encounter language problem (intolerance) only in this chat - enough often and from different people
big thank to all the tolerant people on behalf of all foreign observers

jest dla mnie niezwykle interesujące (w negatywnym sensie), że tylko na tym czacie spotykam się z problemem językowym (nietolerancją) - dość często i od różnych osób
wielkie dzięki wszystkim tolerancyjnym w imieniu wszystkich zagranicznych obserwatorów

[UrszulaMN]

10:29:11 - Nutka poprawia gniazdo, co jakiś czas "syczy":


10:31:46 - ponownie siada w gnieździe, jakby pokazywała, że jest jej:


10:33 - Nutka zaczyna delikatnie śpiewać i poprawiać gniazdo, 10:33:17 - obcy próbował usiąść w gnieździe, Nutka go przepędza:


10:40 znów podśpiewuje delikatnie i znów siada.
