Robert 說,他稍早在 AW 時看到兩隻紅隼(kestrels)在附近飛翔,這讓人放心一些。希望 Athena 能毫髮無傷地逃脫(got away unharmed),而且沒有受到太大驚嚇(spooked)。
Robert says he saw two kestrels flying around when he was in AW earlier, so that's reassuring. Hopefully Athena got away unharmed (and isn't too spooked)🤞💚

Thank you, I really hope so 🤞 It's always lovely to see you whenever you feel like chatting, and I'm glad to hear our TSs are helpful 💚
我也是今天看了聊天室才知道石頭這件事;我只看過牠們偷食物,不過看起來真的很有趣,哈哈。
I didn't know about the stones until I read about it in chat today, I've only seen the food theft, but it was quite entertaining to watch haha
我還好,謝謝你的關心 🥰 雖然恢復是個緩慢的過程,但膝蓋癒合得很好,現在已經可以走一段路了。你最近過得怎麼樣?
I'm okay, thank you for asking 🥰 it's a slow process but it's healing well and I can walk quite a bit now. How have you been?
嗨,Remy 🤗 那段話是回應 laineepie 說她看過牠們撿起小石子的留言。我上網查了一下,發現有好幾種可能的解釋,但我喜歡牠們是在惡作劇(playing pranks)這個想法!
Hello Remy 🤗 that comment was in response to laineepie saying she had seen them pick up pebbles. When I googled there were several possible explanations but I like the idea of them playing pranks!
playing pranks
指開玩笑或惡作劇;這裡是以擬人化方式猜測松鼠撿石子的行為。

嗨,hoppityhares 🤗 我記得看過灰松鼠偷走彼此埋好的堅果,而不是自己去找;我想這就是「更聰明地做事,而不是更努力地做事」(work smarter, not harder)吧 😂
Hello hoppityhares 🤗 I recall seeing a video of grey squirrels stealing each other's buried nuts instead of finding their own, work smarter not harder I suppose 😂
work smarter, not harder
常見勵志語,意思是善用方法提高效率,而不是只靠增加努力。
過去也有人試著把 DOCs 留給 AW 的貓頭鷹,例如在 Fotherdale;但牠們沒有接受,只有鴉科鳥類(corvids)會吃,所以後來就停止了。
They've tried leaving DOCs out for the AW owls in the past like in Fotherdale but they didn't take to it, only the corvids were eating them so he stopped
據我所知,只有在某隻鳥需要時,他才會把 DOCs 放在特定地點;例如 Orion 消失後放在 3T,或 Apollo 受傷時放在 LO。這也是 Apollo 通常會去 FP 的原因。
As far as I know he only leaves DOCs in specific places when somebirdy needs it (like 3T after Orion disappeared, or LO when Apollo was injured), which is why Apollo usually goes to the FP
somebirdy
原文用 somebirdy 取代 somebody,把 bird 融入用語中,是鳥類頻道常見的雙關語。
我看過一種說法:松鼠之間沒有道義(no honour among squirrels),牠們會看著彼此埋堅果,之後再把它們偷走。所以牠們會等到其他松鼠正在看時,改埋一顆石頭,然後躲在藏身處竊笑 😆
I read that there is no honour among squirrels and they watch each other burying nuts then steal them. So they wait until others are watching then bury a stone and snicker from their hiding place 😆
no honour among squirrels
仿自諺語 no honour among thieves,意指彼此之間沒有忠誠或道義。
Remy,你知道 REF 每次造訪 AW 時,DOC 是否都會補充餵食器(像今天一樣),還是只有天氣不好,或是有哪隻鳥需要緊急食物時才會補充?
Remy, do you know if REF refills DOC dispenser in AW every time when he visits (like today), or only if the weather is bad or somebirdy needs an emergency food?
somebirdy
原文將 somebody 改寫成 somebirdy,是以 bird(鳥)製造的雙關語,符合野生動物聊天室的幽默。
我也已經請 HQ(總部)如果看到她的話通知我們。
I've asked HQ to let us know if they see her as well
我也會被嚇到。希望她接下來幾天內某個時候會再試一次。如果有人看到她,請在聊天室裡發文告知。
It'd spook me too. Hopefully she tries again some time in the next couple of days. If anyone sees her please do post in the chat

很不幸,牠們趁她背對著的時候逮到她——她那些厲害的武器全都在另一側。
It was unfortunate that they caught her with her back outwards - with all her good weapons on the wrong side.
今天她可能是在確認牠們是否還在。那次和松鼠的互動很可能讓她更加受到驚嚇。
Today she was probably checking if they're still there. That interaction with the squirrel most likely spooked her even more.
我懷疑 Athena 今晚不會回到 AH(但真的很希望我猜錯)。松鼠在兩晚前把她趕走後,她前一晚就沒有出現。
I doubt Athena will return to AH this evening (but really hope to be wrong). After the squirrels evicted her two nights before, she didn't arrive the previous night.
@BoosPhotos-b1t
18:45 BST
我想那應該就是我看到的那幾隻松鼠。我覺得 Athena 到現在應該已經回家了。我要去吃東西,晚點再回來看看。
I think that must have been what I saw with the squirrels. I think Athena would have come home by now. Need to eat, I'll check in later.
鶇鳥們讓我笑了,我很高興牠們總算設法化解了彼此的歧見 😆。

我來這裡是因為幾分鐘前看到那些松鼠。不知道牠們現在是不是在裡面。那絕對就是一場「handbags」——挺有趣的是,我五分鐘前還看到一隻黑鳥和一隻鶇在洗澡,不過不是同一批。
Why I'm here - saw the squirrels a few mins ago. Don't know if they're inside. That was definitely 'handbags' - funnily, I'd seen a blackbird and thrush bathing 5 mins earlier - but different ones

我今天發現我家的松鼠把草坪上的苔蘚挖了起來——所以現在顯然是松鼠築巢的季節,大概是在為即將到來的冬天準備一個溫暖的巢。我以前沒有特別注意過這件事。
Mine have been digging up moss out of my lawn today - so it's clearly squirrel nest building season - presumably a nice warm one for the coming winter. Not had reason to notice it before.
@BoosPhotos-b1t
15:16 BST
@Iaineepie——我幾天前提過,松鼠會從我家花園偷走碎石。這是已知的現象;目前最好的解釋是,牠們用碎石增加樹上松鼠巢(drey)的重量,讓巢更穩固。
@Iaineepie - I mentioned a couple of days ago that squirrels steal the gravel from my garden. It's a known phenomena - best explanation was that it was to weight down their dreys up in the trees.
@BoosPhotos-b1t
15:14 BST
我看了牠和 Athena 的遭遇,整件事在一陣混亂中很快就結束了,不太容易看清楚;但看起來是松鼠撲向 Athena 左側的「大腿」——也就是那一團蓬鬆的部位。不知道牠到底有沒有碰到,以及接觸了多少。
I watched the encounter with Athena, it was all over in a flurry, so not easy to see, but it looked like the squirrel lunged at Athena's left 'thigh', the floofy bit. No idea how much contact it got.
in a flurry

by the pond
表示「在池塘邊」;by 在此處表示靠近某個地點。
沒錯,那就是牠們真正的家;松鼠冬天需要一個專門打造的巢穴(purpose-built drey)。我也希望 Celeste 能回來。
Yes, it is their proper home, squirries need a purpose built drey for winter. I hope Celeste comes back too.
purpose-built drey
指為特定用途專門建造的松鼠巢穴;drey 是松鼠以樹枝等材料築成的巢。
對那件事我也有點擔心。如果她今晚回來,而且看起來沒事,我會比較放心。🤞
Yeah I'm a little worried about that too. I'll feel better if she comes home tonight and seems okay 🤞
我也有點擔心 Athena,因為那隻松鼠是從下方攻擊的……真的希望牠沒有咬到 Athena。
also i'm a bit worried about Athena, the way how that squirrel attacked from below... i really hope it didn't bite her
也很希望 REF 已經清理了 AH,那些松鼠需要有人幫忙踢一腳(helping boot)👞💫。不是針對牠們,但牠們可以到別處築巢。
Really hope REF cleared AH, those squirrels need a helping boot👞💫No offense to them, but they can make a den elsewhere.

我家的松鼠會從花園頂端收集小石子。牠們會檢查石子後跑掉,我不確定原因。今天早上牠們也在埋藏堅果。

表示「不論牠們在哪裡」,帶有溫柔關心的語氣。
不過,灰松鼠(grey squirrels)只是在遵循牠們的自然本能(natural instincts);說到底,這其實是人類的錯——我們在 19 世紀把牠們從北美(NA, North America)蓄意帶到英國。
