Time lapse:

Sequence A - 600 frames were recorded every 30 seconds for 15½ minutes with a 1.5x barlow.
I stopped the recording as i couldn't see any noticable changes. Went inside to cool down, i was getting fried out in the sun.

Sequence B - 600 frames were recorded every 30 seconds for 18½ minutes with a 1.5x barlow.
I guess i should have continued the previous recordings. As i came outside again shortly after i saw some new activity.
