New Camera
This year the Winter White-tailed Eagle Feeding Ground Camera starts a little later than in previous years. The camera was installed on December 8, with the assistance of Tiit and Joosep, but we only managed to get the sound in working order in the new year, with the help of Beta Group.

House sparrows.
At the bird feeder house sparrows behave like greenfinches: they come to have a meal, not only just to grab something to eat and then rush off.
The body plumage of male birds is clearer-coloured, chestnut brown back with some yellow and black. Females have duller back plumage, in grey, black and beige. Both have a white band and black streaks on the brown wings. The underparts are grey.
The male has a black chin patch that females lack, crown is grey, a brown arched stripe from the eye. A female sparrow’s head is brownish, and the browstripe is not so dark.
