Young lesser spotted eagle Tormi was fed several times by parents Tuuli and Renno on Sunday.

 

In the evening nestling life came to an end  and Tormi started a real eagle life.

 

WIND IN  YOUR WINGS!

 

„Soon I will be one month old ...“

 

Time flies. Tormi, the only offspring of lesser spotted eagles Tuuli and Remo, celebrates another birthday. Proper feathers develop, eating on one's own and standing up work well. Tormi knows too that it isn’t as hot in the shadow as in the sun. Life is beautiful. One more month, and in the beginning of August Tormi should fledge.

 

In Tuuli and Remo’s nest the offspring of the lesser spotted eagles has become one week old. The second egg remains unhatched in the nest, and so the natural selection has been made already at the egg stage. As mentioned earlier the parents usually raise only one – the stronger – chick.

 

 

The first LSE chick was hatched in Tuuli and Remo's nest at last

 

The lesser spotted eagle pair that has occupied the black stork nest had their first chick hatched on Friday night. The first egg was laid on April 27, and the female as a rule at once begins brooding. Thus the chicks also hatch at different times. The incubation period is estimated to be 37-41 days. Here it took 45 days. Slowly but steadily?
