[@yoda40]

Brilliant. Thanks Nature Tec. Quite exciting and emotional

[@marsha1963]

I loved the ‘poop’ at 3.38! So funny.

Birds are just amazing. I cannot imagine a world without them

Das erinnert mich immer an den 5m-Turm im Schwimmbad: spring ich…spring ich nicht…hey, aus dem Weg, ich spring… oder nicht….

[@uschilisa5139]

Ich wünsche den Kleinen ein schönes Meisenleben , an meinem Geburtstag sind sie ausgeflogen , danke , das wir ihre Entwicklungen miterleben konnten 🙏🏼🙏🏼🥰

Dankeschön

[@merveilleuxetmagique]

Awesome! They are gorgeous, full of vitality. I wish for them the best! Thank you very much Thomas!

[@prettynoose888]

Thank you Nature Tec, it was a wonderful and fascinating experience again. Pie and Apple were magnificent parents and I've learned so much more about these clever, hard-working birds. I will certainly miss giving the "timestamp" for Pie's early morning breakfast call and how happy Apple and the chicks were to see him first in the morning.

[@belindawallace5203]

They all seemed so impatient to leave but when it was their turn they needed a little time to get their bearings, so sweet. Thank you Thomas for all your hard work both for the wildlife in your garden and for setting up all the technology so we can share in the experience.

[@paulineb66]

Thanks. I missed this. I love how they were practically pushing and shoving each other to get out.

[@simplycurlyde]

It was like "Come on Man! Get out! You're holding us up!"😂

[@Andrei8pa3]

And then once it was their turn, they ended up sitting there for a bit😂

gut gemacht, fliegt schön davon und passt gut auf, schönes Leben meine Süssen♡♡♡

[@dany12168]

Thank you for allowing us to get a glimpse of your early life. 🥰 I will miss you. 🥺Take care out there in the world 🌎 👋🥹

[@lilbitsleepy2574]

It was like an epiphany of “Oh we can sit there?!” to “Wait..we can do what mom and dad do?!?!” So many cute faces at the door and then wheeeee off they go! 9 little babies taking on the world. Enjoy the great outdoors little ones 🥰

[@youlikesmoothjazz2506]

I watched this live and it was amazing! Thank you Thomas for the opportunity to see nature in action. I feel so blessed to have seen this in real time yet again. Can't wait for Mini and Pip's chicks!

[@BalkepsDomain]

It seems like this time they were speedrunning to get out of the box together.

[@weinicht3792]

Thank you for the video! I watched nearly the whole Thursday, but on Friday I had to work :o)

[@aliz125]

It was very exciting to see how they was growing up. I think we all will miss this adorable birdies❤️ Thank you Naturetec for this experince!

[@mariam_4me]

very nice team work😍

[@BorgAssimilator]

Each time I watch through this I notice new things, like the chick that landed on his back here: 4:38. The entire fledging was really crazy. 😆

[@delilahboa]

Amazing to watch the whole beginning of these amazing birds, I love this time of year for this, thank you NatureTec, love your channel and live streams xx

[@lilypie5420]

Love your vids!

[@fredricknilsson7]

Good luck out there and be careful 😍

[@MagoFaz71]

Buona fortuna🥰. Thank you Nature Tec.

[@ngc9982]

This has been fascinating, thanks again for all your hard work. I downloaded this for an elderly couple who have never had internet so not a clue as to what was going on inside all the nest boxes they'd put up every year. What a treat :)

[@NatureTec]

That's so sweet of you :-) Thank you

[@anniemac3075]

Beautiful experience, hope they have long lives in the big bad world.

[@TheThreeScoots]

They will love outside! Thank you!

¡¡¡Espectacular!!! Muchísimas gracias, NatureTec por el esfuerzo que haces para ayudar a todos estos pequeñines y por la generosidad que demuestras al compartir sus vivencias a través de estas imágenes de extraordinaria calidad.

[@T_Lorentzen]

Interesting how most of them have a BM just before they leave, like a switch was activated that allow them to now poop in the nest.

[@raquelandradeas]

Estava aguardando esse vídeo. 😍🥰🇧🇷

[@prettynoose888]

Oh the fact that Apple laid an egg on the last day may explain why she was still bringing in nest material (and sometimes trying to feed it to the chicks) to the very end 🥰

[@murphychurch8251]

Ah, so she laid it a few days ago? I was surprised to see the egg when they fledged but wasn't sure whether it had been one that didn't hatch or whether she was already going for round 2. 😆

[@prettynoose888]

@@murphychurch8251 She laid this egg early in the morning on the day her chicks fledge, so early morning May 27.

And what about the starling that came into the box a bit later? Can't remember the exact time...8, 9 or 10...it came in, had a look around and then struggled to get out because it was a bit too big for the entrance. 🙈

[@ninoteskera]

Hey that box was originally intended for Starlings.

[@murphychurch8251]

@@ninoteskera ah, so that's why the entrance was narrowed? Because the starling really struggled to get out, it was probably coming to the conclusion that it should visit the feeders a little less frequently 😂

[@aaronmacy9134]

Lmao, this is like human families. There are those like Mini and Pip’s, where each child is cautious to venture out into the world because of how comfortable childhood was, ..and then there’s the absolute Chaos of “Apple & Pie’s” where every kid can’t wait to GTFO cuz moms still stripping at the bird feeder and dads clearly drunk at 9am. **LMFAO** I watched mini & pips kids fledge last year and I don’t remember them fighting to get out, or quickly shitting the nest one last time like “f___ you, Dad!” before taking flight and leaving the nest.😂

[@glendamontanez9174]

Man that's messed up. Let's poop all over mom's house before leaving the nest.

Is there a video of Apple & Pie PTII Fledging?

[@NatureTec]

Unfortunately not, but the Apple and Pie stream will soon be available again on the NatureTec channel.

[@tinustinus571]

your videos are great! we have now installed a hedgehog home in our garten. we had the problem with smart cats. but once we added a tunnel to access the house we did not wait long until a hedgehog moved in. we have installed a wildlife camera outside to watch our friend going out and going in. we had lot of problems with the wildlife camera (bug after firmware update, wifi connection lost, no support). we are thinking now to install a camera inside the hedgehog house. What would be your recommendation? What is your experience with the gear you use in your videos? There are a lot of wildlife cameras on the market, but lot of them have a poor quality (no support, poor software, poor wifi connection). And we read the user reviews we know that a lot of users are struggling with similar issues. Wildlife cameras are not that cheap and it would good to buy and promote gear with support, update and good software.

[@NatureTec]

I had already written something about this in my FAQs. Feel free to take a look: www.naturetec-live.de/projekt/faq/#frage9

[@tinustinus571]

@@NatureTec thank you for your answer. I already found on your website forum a couple of cameras you use (axis, hikvision, etc). Are these models still your favorite choices? Are you cameras battery-powered? Do you use solar panel? We had some many issues with the poor software quality of wildlife cameras that we are looking for cameras with good software and support. and we have had enough bad experiences. some youtubers indicate the gear they use in the video description. is there a way to know wich gear you use for your channels? It would be an excellent way to compare.

[@NatureTec]

@@tinustinus571 There are a variety of cameras available, each more suitable than others depending on usage, requirements and budget. So it wouldn't be serious to recommend exactly my cameras to you - in addition, some of my models are no longer produced. I therefore use different camera models and manufacturers for different purposes. You can't go wrong with the camera manufacturers you mentioned. Good cameras are always wired (power and internet), without batteries, without WiFi... Wildlife cameras are always the worse alternative.

[@tinustinus571]

@@NatureTec thanks a lot for the information. if I well understand your answer, the camera has to be wired (ethernet cable for example) to be powered. Does it mean one has to pull a cable in the garden in order to power the camera in the bird house or the hedgehog house? Is there a technical workaround I don't know about (any adapter to a battery or solar panel)? Since most the cameras have WIFI for the transmission of the data. Anyway, you're doing a great job with your channel. I feel like I am a total newbie.

[@NatureTec]

@@tinustinus571 There are cameras that require a power cable and an Ethernet cable. But there are also cameras with just a single cable for Ethernet and power, it's called POE (Power-Over-Ethernet). Thank you very much, I'm glad you like my work.
