Oh I'm sorry, that was Belle that brought the fish in and she was eating the old carp. Lib took the fish to the back of the nest, not Belle.

paula eagleholic said...

And then Belle took off again...Lib still with the chicks.

Danelle said...

Good afternoon ya'll! I've been away all weekend, and off work sick today. So I see we have a 3rd chick today? How awesome!

UPDATE ON MEI XIANG AND TIAN TIAN
March 17: Pacing, Power Walking, Napping, Bleating
Over the past four days the pandas' behavior has been fairly consistent. Tian Tian is pacing, power walking, and pirouetting around his yard and checking the mesh windows for an opportunity to check on Mei Xiang. When Mei is nearby, she alternates chirping provocatively, with her higher pitched “stay away from me” squeal. Tian watches intently with his ears forward, sitting on his haunches with his face pressed against the mesh. As soon as she scolds, he usually gives up and walks away, returning to his bamboo, if only for a short time before going back and checking again. Mei Xiang is also pacing. She is spending more time on the ground and less time climbing in the trees, since she does not need to avoid or deter any advances from Tian.

We shift her indoors in the afternoon for urine collection. She has filled her afternoons with long naps on the rocks. She is declining to eat most of her bamboo. When given a fruitsicle, instead of consuming it with her usual pleasure, she used it to anoint her entire body and once the remains melted, she rolled in it. What a sticky mess! Thankfully, she still enjoys her produce, which enables us to collect swabs for vaginal cytology each morning.

Mei is also bleating at her keepers. She seems to be withholding this vocalization when Tian Tian is near. This is the only time of year we hear Mei bleat. It should be only a couple more days....

LOVE IS IN THE AIR FOR THE NZ PANDAS

deb said...

Are they usually together, Helen? I haven't watched the pandas much.
