Karula National Park (Karl II and Kaia)

[Adria]

20.59 - started to rain

It's also raining on Kaia


21.28 - it stops raining

21.36 - Kaia shakes off the raindrops


Kaia turned the eggs,PS, again not feeding

[Madli]

It hasn't rained in a month! So I'm happy for every drop that our thirsty nature needs!

[Adria]

22.12 - night vision, Kaia on the nest, not feeding again



I'm worried about the second chick, it hasn't had food for a long time and Kaia probably not't feed the chicks until morning...

Good morning

04.13 There are still 2 eggs intact, one of them has a big hole.

[Madli]

05.07 Kaia stands up and arranges some moss and covers the chicks again.


05.36 KARL
Kaia greets him with a few soft whistles and flies away.
Chicks are twittering and begging for food.

[Madli]

05.37 FEEDING (1)
Karl drops a nice pile of fish. Both chicks eat a little, but the fish is still too "fresh" (big and not soft enough).




#1 manages to swallow a whole fish. #2 also takes a few smaller bites.

[Madli]

After feeding Karl cleans the chicks, they are satisfied and sleepy




Karl covers them.

[Madli]

05.59 Karl stands up, he only cleans the chicks and pecks some moss.
06.19 Next short break, Karl checks on the chicks and covers them again.

06.46 Karl PS- good


06.47 FEEDING (2) Small pile of food. Both chicks get some mouthfuls.
Not much to see- moss covest the view.

[Madli]

07.36 Karl stands up. PS. Two eggs are visible. Chicks are not begging for food. Karl cleans and aerates the nest.

Egg barking again.

08.16 FEEDING (3) Both chicks eat.
