53-2023 / 163-2023 (likely 2 nests, but maybe all data for 1 pair only).
dam: dam 1 blocks
location: is nest 53/110, same as 2021/2022. Later in season chicks ringed little north of this spot, but then no Caspians higher on dam. Same couple?
breeders: cach x cach
OBSERVATIONS:
26-4-2023 nest: Refreshed red stripe on block, nest is 1,5 m south of red stripe.
eggs: 3x egg, measured. No water test.
11-5-2023 nest: 1 egg hatching, other 2 still complete, but many nests here. If this is the wrong nest, then maybe R-87 & R-88 from nest 163? In retrospect: yes, likely of 163.
18-5-2023 nest: Empty, no chicks found.
27-5-2023 nest: No shit at nest, no traces of chicks. Low on N-side, found again R-87 & R-88 from new nest number 163 (and likely not from 53)?
18-6-2023 pull: R-88 might be hybrid? See nest 163 (which is north of 53), for details on R-8.7 and R-8.8. Present on N-side, but walks up to location nest 53!
