April 30
Latvian nest

In this nest I have seen mostly one bird, so far I have also not seen any food being brought, if it is the female (Mētra?) on the egg, she sometimes leaves the nest for a while. But is calling quite a bit. It's difficult to see so many different nests at the same time

In our Latvian forum there is opinion, that male who was in nest yesterday isn't Madis but other boy. However our expert Ugjis hasn't approved this opinion yet.

Adults continue to make brief visit to the nest. Sometimes they bring food offerings or nest furnishing, then they leave again. No egg yet.

The breeding bird is supplied at the nest with fodder. Looks like a frog which one brings there.
