There's a party near the nest A great tit is singing, and I think a coal tit too. Bonus is very interested. He is watching and listening.


At the same time K3 casts a pellet.

08.26 A cuckoo is nearby, making strange noises again. Last time our chicks encountered a cuckoo, they were threatened by it. This time they have learned that this is not a danger and don't react to it.


Maybe for Bonus this is a new sound. But they are all listening with great interest

I will add some pictures of this mystery prey. It looks like a rat or a big mouse to me
