Again a post about my favourite pair of owls, Tristan and Isolde. Both live in the Eifel-Region of Germany and have their own Webcams (https://egeeulen.de/uhu-webcams/livestream-cam-3/).
Now they got new neighbours and they are not getting along.

Webcam shows that the goose still lives there and seems to be a very stubborn neighbour.

Geese have Mafioso attitude.
There's a flock at a nearby pond and when any animal gets "too close" to the flock (whatever that means), 2 large male geese will slowly walk toward them like a couple of tough guys out of a mafia movie.
Once the animal moves off, the tough guys will just stand there for a couple minutes, as if to say "that's what I thought".
Haha

The light reflection on the owl's eyes makes the pic so much better x)

Brunhilde pretends everything is normal and ignores the beach towel spread out by Isolde and Tristan.

"This castle isn't big enough for the both of us!"
That goose has built a very fluffy nest. Do you know what type of goose it is?
Best of luck to them. I hope they make it safely.

Watched the stream only when it was sleeping and my guess is egyptian goose. But I am not quite sure.

It is an egyptian goose. It's been there for the last days whenever I checked for Tristan and Isolde's return.
And iirc there has also been one last year - until Isolde drove it away.
