VIDEO: Measures and weights of the osprey chicks

Video recorded by Starling, LK forum
Translation: Liis
 
In the video the whole family is waiting for male osprey Ilmar to arrive - all can see the fish. Mother Irma at once takes care of the delivered food, so that the whole hungry band will be equally fed. Ilmar feels more comfortable with watching the family life from a distance.
 
Ülo Väli from Kotkaklubi (Eagle Club) sent the results of the ringing, with comments. Our thanks to him!
