It's so hot, it makes me yearn for #rain. I'm in a #sombre mood today. For one, I've got the sniffles (and I'm an expert whiner), but more seriously: the hatchlings disappeared without a trace. ๐Ÿฅบ The nest is empty, the parents are nowhere in sight, and there's something on the floor that looks like dry blood. I haven't the faintest idea what happened. The nest sits undisturbed on the beam, so what could have snatched them? I didn't think the spot is easy to reach for a ground predator. It's just straight beams and walls. Could a raccoon or pine marten have climbed up there for a snack? Very sad. ๐Ÿ˜ข

sorry to hear... :(

@meoralis ๐Ÿ˜” Sorry to hear. I was rooting for the hatchlings.
@bluejay@ohai.social Yeah, me too. ๐Ÿฅบ I thought it's such a great spot for a nest, but I was wrong
So sorry for the hatchlings (and you).
Thank you ๐Ÿ˜ž Maybe the parents will give it another go in a while (if they are still alive)
๐Ÿ˜ข oh no.... Seem to be an unfortunate day all around.
Yeah, what a bummer. Oh well, there's a summer holiday to look forward too, only one more week to go!
Oh no, poor little hatchlings :( Hope you get better soon!
Thanks, nature is so cruel sometimes ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ
Oh no! So sorry about this.
Thank you ๐Ÿฅบ
Very sorry to hear about the hatchlings. Thatโ€™s so sad ๐Ÿ˜”
Right? My mum said the most likely culprits are magpies
