like Natalio


- 11.12.24 - 11.20.28 (and she immediately loses her balance - not as seriously as yesterday Natalio; preening from 11.15.18 to 11.19.06 - eggs are in her shadow)
- 12.08.03 - 12.16.13 (from 12.12 Zica is staying above the eggs - she is shadowing)
- 13.08.24 - 13.12.40 (preening: 13.09.36-13.11.44, eggs are in her shadow)
- 13.59.44 - 14.02.09

Buenas tardes. 18:22:41, 22:53, 23:31 y 23:41 creo que se escucha a los pollitos dentro del huevo, pero mi sonido no es muy bueno. A ver si alguien lo puede confirmar.

Good afternoon. 18:22:41, 22:53, 23:31, and 23:41 I think I can hear the chicks inside the egg, but my audio isn't very good. I'm hoping someone can confirm this.

the earliest date for hatching is theoretical in 3 days (30 days after laying) and baby bird chirps from inside the egg usually on the last 2 days

again her eyes are closing and her head is dropping here and there for a few seconds

- 21.58.29 - 22.02.18 (preening 21.58.54 - 22.01.59) ... it is dark on the nest

“PIP WATCH” time
- The pip is the first tiny hole in the egg, made by the chick as it begins pecking its way out of the shell. You can look for the pip when the adults are getting off and on the nest and when they are doing egg rolls. You need to see the blunt end of the egg; that’s where the pip first forms
- But before we see a pip, we are apt to hear muffled peeps coming from the chick inside the egg. That and the reactions of the adult sensing movement are apt to be the first signs that a hatch is imminent.

EGG TALK
Baby bird chirps from inside the egg usually on the last 2 days - the sound the baby bird makes indicates that the baby bird is hatching soon.

- video from the past by our forum member Madli : Egg talk loud and clear! https://youtu.be/G2qxGReCPZ4?feature=shared

ZICA (care of the eggs and the nest: eggs rolling, digging the nest bowl/aerating, ...)

- on the rewind he is already incubating (07.53.35) to 07.53.31
- 08.28.35 up - 08.31.07 down/incubating (Z. immediately starts preening - to 08.28.57)
continuation:
- 09.09.03 - 09.10.35

09.21.54 NATALIO flew in, almost slipped off the edge of the nest, both of them call, N. is hissing (is there anyone unwanted nearby?) - at 09.22.31 N. out again





- 09.22.40 - 09.23.00

someone unwanted is still nearby - as indicated by Zica's behavior: she observes sharply, retracts her neck, fluffs her feathers - the enemy cannot be seen (approx. 9.25-9.28)
