23:42:39，tawny 進入山毛櫸（beech）區，四處看了看，跳上樹枝，然後飛到 MWB。

Ghost 先看右邊，再看左邊，來回張望，是隻很警覺的貓頭鷹（cautious owl）。

ghost looks right than left back and forth cautious owl

23:25，幽靈（👻）在平台上（post）。

23:17:48，漂亮的領角鴞／褐鴞（tawny）。

小心，老鼠；貓頭鷹（owl）聽得到你。

watch out rat owl hears you

BL5 看起來像 Gylfie。

21:58:54，狗狗（doggy）出現。

我聽到 Luna owl（Luna owl）叫聲了。

i hear luna owl

我得說……這聊天（chat）真的很有意思！很多想法。我之前分享過一篇關於動物情緒（animal emotions）的研究，真的很不錯。謝謝（TY）這些發人深省（thought provoking）的想法、TSs 和問候！祝你今天過得愉快（HAGD）！🤔💗🤔

I have to say....a very interesting chat!! lots of thoughts. I shared a study on animal emotions once really good. TY for thought provoking thoughts, TSs, and greetings!! HAGD!! 🤔💗🤔

我很懷念有 10 個攝影機（10 cameras）的版面，因為 Gylfie（Gylfie）一直輪流換巢位（nests）棲息（roost），包括 Elm（Elm）、Beech（Beech）、Sycamore（Sycamore）和 BOT（BOT）。

I miss the layout with 10 cameras, since Gylfie is alternating nests to roost (Elm, Beech, Sycamore and BOT)

寒鴉（Jackdaws）的眼睛真的很漂亮。

Jackdaws eyes are so beautiful

我想是 Gylfie（Gylfie）在 Sycamore（Sycamore）樹上。

I think its Gylfie in Sycamore

Sycamore 裡面的是誰（who's in）？

whos in sycamore?

那是 Luna 的貓頭鷹的家（home）！

thats Lunas owls home!

走開，你們這些討厭的寒鴉（jackdaws）！

Shoo nasty jack daws

就像貓和狗有時候很難互動（interacting），因為狗會想把貓當成另一隻狗來解讀（read），反過來（vice versa）也是一樣。

like how cats and dogs sometimes have difficulty interacting, because the dog is trying to read the cat as another dog, and vice versa

這甚至不是「我們是人、她是動物」的問題——我不會把人類（humans）抬到什麼特殊地位（special status）；我們都是動物（animal），只是屬於本質上（fundamentally）非常不同的物種（species）。

it's not even that we're human and she's animal - I don't elevate humans to some special status, we're both animal, just such fundamentally different species

但貓頭鷹，像我前面說的，一開始就是相當不社交（non-social）的物種——這其實就是她的自然狀態（natural state）。

whereas owls, like I said, are a pretty non-social species to begin with - this is her natural state

例如關於「lonely」這件事——人類是社會性物種（social species）、群居動物（pack animals），所以我們會把自己的感受投射（project）到 Gylfie 身上，認為她沒有社交互動（social interaction）就一定會感到孤立（isolation）和憂鬱（depression）。

for example on the "lonely" thing - humans are a social species, pack animals, so we project that Gylfie here must experience isolation and depression without social interaction

——因為我們不可避免地（unavoidably）是透過人類視角（human lens）在嘗試理解牠們。

--- because we're unavoidably attempting to do so through a human lens.

我完全相信貓頭鷹有很複雜的情緒（emotionally complex），而且絕對不是「dumb animals」。我也認為牠們在認知上（cognitively）跟我們差異很大，大到我們其實無法真正理解牠們的內在生活（inner lives）——

I absolutely believe the owls are emotionally complex and not "dumb animals" whatsoever. I also believe they're cognitively so different from us that we can't really understand their inner lives---

這一點我們只好各持己見（agree to disagree）了！

We will have to agree to disagree on this one!

「鳥不是 dumb animals，而證據顯示，貓頭鷹以及其他有伴侶連結（bonded）的鳥類，在失去配偶（mate）時，會經歷真實的痛苦（distress），並出現類似悲傷（sadness）的行為變化（behavioural changes）。」

"Birds are not dumb animals, and evidence suggests that owls and other bonded bird species experience real distress and behavioural changes resembling sadness when they lose a mate"

歷史上，人類常用「dumb animals」這個說法來減輕自己對待牠們時的罪惡感（guilt）；但事實上，牠們是有能力產生複雜情感（complex feelings）的。

Historically humans have used the phrase "dumb animals" to lessen the guilt associated with our treatment of them, when in fact they are capable of complex feelings.

我覺得一直堅持她是心碎（heartbroken）和哀傷（grieving）這件事……對我來說很奇怪（odd）。

the seeming insistence on her being heartbroken and grieving is... odd to me

我們其實無法知道她在想念什麼，甚至不知道她到底有沒有在想念，也完全不知道她的想法和情緒是什麼樣子——我們只能從行為（behaviour）去推測（extrapolate）。

we can't know what she misses, or *if* she misses, or what her thoughts and emotions are like at all - we can only extrapolate from behaviour

我覺得她很孤單。她想念 Dryer 的陪伴（company）和與另一隻鳥互動（interaction with another bird）。如果這不是孤單（lonely），那又是什麼呢？

I think she is lonely. She misses Dryers company and the interaction with another bird. What is that if not lonely?

牠們天生就是獨居（solitary）的動物，我不認為牠們一定會像我們理解的那樣感到「孤單（lonely）」；不過從成對變成單獨，對牠們來說肯定是個變化。

they're naturally solitary animals, I don't know that they necessarily get *lonely* as we understand it, though I'm sure going from paired to unpaired is certainly a change fo them

美麗的知更鳥（robin）

beautiful robin

沒有 Dryer（dryer）在，應該會很孤單吧……Percy 先生（Mr Percy）看起來也不太常出現……

must be lonely without dryer.. mr percy doesn't seem to be about much..

💭「……田鼠（vole）……好好吃……」

💭 "... vole. ... yummy..."

那是 Sycamore（syca）裡的 Gylfie（Gylfie）……看她的肢體語言（body language）……她在想很深奧的事情。

that is gylfie in syca.. body language.. she's thinking deep thoughts

14:29 Groot（groot）上有超大老鼠（ratzilla）。

14.29 ratzilla on groot

我看起來像是 Gylfie（Gylfie），那些小斑點（speckles）、一直抓抓（scratching）的樣子，還有她的行為都很像。🤔

Looks like Gylfie to me, the little speckles, all the scratching, and the way she acts. 🤔

啊，那是 Gylfie（Gylfie）嗎？我大多是從臉來辨識她（ID），這個角度看不太清楚。

ah, is it Gylfie then? I mostly ID her from the face, couldn't get a good look from this angle

沒有，Percy 沒有戴腳環（unringed）。

no, Percy's unringed

Percy 有戴腳環（ringed）嗎？

is percy ringed

好，我想公穀倉貓頭鷹（male barn owls）比較小、斑點（spots）比較少；母穀倉貓頭鷹（female barn owls）斑點更多、體型也更大。

OK i think that male barn owls are smaller and do not have as much spots and female barn owls have more spots and are larger

一開始以為是公鳥，因為尾巴末端顏色比較淡；但我很確定我也有看到斑點（speckles）。

initially thought it was a male since the end of the tail is pale, but I'm pretty sure I saw speckles as well

不確定是誰，抱歉！希望等等會有更會辨識（ID）的人來……

not sure who it is, sorry! Hopefully someone better at ID comes along...

餵食點（feed）有老鼠（rat） 🐀

Sycamore（sycamore）裡的是哪一隻貓頭鷹（owl）？

wich owl is in sycamore

……我回看（rewind）了一下，對，它已經在那裡 4 小時了，還是把我嚇到（jumpscare）了。真有你的。

... looking through the rewind, yeah, it's been there for 4 hours and still managed to jumpscare me. Good going.

剛剛那個表情符號是 😅

*😅 for the emoji there

喔——Sycamore（syca）裡有隻穀倉貓頭鷹（BO）？那一直都在那裡嗎？😓

oh - BO in syca - has that been there the whole time? 😓

Kerry，也祝你有美好的一天（HAGD, have a good day）👋，謝謝你的時間戳（TSS）

HAGD Kerry 👋 thank you for the TSS

10:17:12 Gylfie 回到槭樹（sycamore）

10:08:22 山毛櫸（beech）裡又有更多絨毛（fluff），而 Gylfie 也在移動中

10 08 22 more fluff in beech and gylfie on the move

10:06:18 斑蟲鴉（jackdaw）帶進了絨毛（fluff）

Gylfie 快醒醒，烏鴉科鳥類（corvids）正在「擅自使用」你的房地產投資組合（property portfolio）😂

Gylfie wake up, there are corvids taking liberties with your property portfolio 😂

謝謝大家提供的時間戳（TSs, time stamps）💚

Thank you for the TSs everyone 💚

我很喜歡和 ufo7 以及 ollie 的互動 💕，謝謝 biodouglasforam，也謝謝 kaw 提供的時間戳（TS, time stamps）；我期待在貼文裡看到 Ghost 👻

I enjoyed the interaction with ufo7 and ollie 💕 ty biodouglasforam Ty kaw for the ts I look forward to see ghost 👻 on the post

8:37 斑蟲鴉（jackdaw）在山毛櫸（beech）旁整理；8:55:52 Gylfie 在槭樹（sycamore）上；5:13:30 Foxy 回來了；6:25:49 日出（🌅）

大家早安（Good morning all），嗨 Michelle。

Good morning all, hello Michelle.

喔，年輕的狐狸（young fox）。

Oh young fox

年輕的穀倉貓頭鷹 Rigel 的第一次狩獵教學影片裡，可以看到腳環（ring）。

Young Barn owl Rigel first hunting lesson video has a ring

沒有 Rigel 被戴腳環（ringed）的完整影片，但我想有一支短片（short）可以看到她有戴著。

There’s not a video of Rigel getting ringed, but I think there’s a short where you can see it on her.

我前幾天晚上看到 Celeste 回到她原本的巢（old nest）了。

I seen Celeste back at her old nest the other night

Rigel 已經有戴腳環（ringed）了。

Rigel was ringed

他們有替 Ridel 戴腳環（ring）嗎？

Did they ring Ridel?

在 Ash Wood 看到新的 BO（Barn Owl，穀倉貓頭鷹），也可能是 Tappy 沒飛太遠；很難說。

New BO was spotted in Ash Wood, or it might be that Tappy didn’t go too far away. Hard to tell.

我本來不想提脹氣（gas），不然又會被上了一課，講到我餵她的飼料，還有他們家那個一包比一台 Subaru 還貴（costs more a bag than a Subaru）的品牌比較好。

I didnt want to mention the gas or it would of been a lecture on the food I'm giving her and how their brand that costs more a bag than a Subaru is better

會員直播（members stream）在主頻道根節點／首頁（root）上的穀倉貓頭鷹內容。

我大概都替他付到一台車的頭期款（down payment）了。

I must of got him a down payment on a car

我提到 Libby 的尿（wee）聞起來怪怪的，結果他們立刻衝出去（BAM）取樣，讓獸醫再多收我 70 美元，拿顯微鏡（microscope）看。

I mentioned that Libby's wee smelt funny, BAM were outside getting a sample for the vet to charge me an additional $70 to look at it through a microsope

那很貴，我上次光是 13 顆抗生素（antibiotics）和獸醫帳單就要 80 美元；我敢說他們還一直推銷加購（upsell）東西。

Thats expensive, $80 for 13 anti biotics and the vet bill last time for me, I'm sure they upsell stuff

我對獸醫（vet）也有同感。

I feel that way with the vet

我覺得我都快把藥師（pharmacist）的孩子送去讀大學了！🤓

I think I'm putting my pharmacist's kids though college!🤓

不是，我是得了瞼緣炎（Blepharitis），有點像一直持續的結膜炎（conjunctivitis）。

No I have Bletharitis, it's like permanent conjuntivitis

我回來看到 Gylfie 很活躍，還在刮巢材（nest scraping）之類的。

Going back I see Gylfie's been very active, nest scraping and all

新眼鏡（new glasses）嗎？

new glasses ?

我看到你了，穀倉貓頭鷹（barn owl）。

I see you barn owl

我還以為那是老鼠尾巴（mouse's tail）掛在她嘴裡。

i thought it was mouses tail hanging from her mouth

在她下巴上啦（笑）（lol）。

Gylfie 😍 23:58:15，嘴喙上有根羽毛（feather），親愛的。
