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.

This is how we are used to see blackheaded gulls.
 
The young fly nicely already, breeding colonies are abandoned, and with the incipient moulting an important change occurs in the bird’s looks: the chocolate brown head "mask” disappears.

Some of the blackheaded gulls already have their head mask coloured like "coffee with milk”. Within a month just two darker spots behind the eyes will be left and only an observant birdwatcher recognizes the blackheaded gulls.
 
Immature blackheaded gulls.
 
The immature birds start migrating already within a month towards central and southern Europe. Later we can see immature birds that have arrived from the north passing through.
