11.32 - the chicks started chirping - probably someone had seen them.

Bonus took a defensive stance and a defensive sound :shock:

It was a Common buzzard ( Buteo buteo) and the same bird flew by.

Video:



It was an interesting situation.

At first, K2 (V) thinks that a parent stork comes? It starts to pump with wings and twitter- food begging.
K3 joins. At first K1 too?

Then Bonus takes a defensive stance. Others become quiet fast and observe silently. Bonus is the only one reacting.
