8:44 pm My goodness it is windy, very strong wind gusts.

I am not sure which adult is on the nest but he/she was tidying and fluffing up the nest bowl around the eaglets. Hope that wind dies down soon.

She tried to put it on several places about for two minutes
At last she settled it behind the trunk

- I want to move this!


- It's best to put it there.. hm..


..no, not there, but here. There is the best place.

Local forecast for Saunja, where the nest is located, isn't too harsh.
About 5m/s south and south-east winds.

it is recommended that pictures and videos are deleted from quotes especially when the original post is somewhere quite near. this is to avoid unnecessary repetition.

they may be left in the quotes if the original post is on the previous page or so or if the picture/video is necessary in understanding your post.

i removed the picture from your post because neither of these cases apply here. i hope you will not mind.

good night!

Thank you Olga and Brzoskwiniowa for posting your marvelous pictures!

April 29th

Good morning,

06:08 A crow is sitting on the branch and flying around the nest.

About those flies, I wonder what they do with fishes left-overs.
Do they throw it out from the nest? Whether all of the remains lies in the nest more than two weeks (and will be there for another few weeks... sunny, hot weeks)?
Worms probably won't be able to eat/utilize everything so fast


( chicks just wake up)

[Felis silvestris]

Last year on the Latvian nest they also had more fish than could be eaten. The remains were just sinking into the nest material and been covered by new material and even at some time dug out again, by the eagles or passing crows. Well matured fish so to say

flies lay their eggs in the rotting fish and then the fly larvae will eat the fish flesh. it's insect larvae which eat dead meat, not worms (earthworms). it will look like in the picture which Owlie posted.

the amount of fish on the nest is so large though that a great deal of it will just decompose on the nest. last year parents added regularly and often hay and green twigs on top of the fish pile. they created a 'sandwich' there. i think they wanted to sanitize the nest. these two haven't invented that yet. they pile just the fish. they build a fish mountain.
