Estonian LSE Nest Discussion 2012 ~ Tuuli & Remo

[Maxie4Paws]

I have come to love her in a very short time. and i know that alot of u here have been with her from the start. If there is anyone on FaceBook there is a page that was made 4 her.. its called Stephi Memories and more. Go there like and share anything u want about her pic. feelsing anything as there are alot that loved her. and its still so very hard without her.
can someone tell me if the cam will still stay on as i do go to it eachday to just see if mom or dad wil be home.and wil they come back to in when its Eagle Season again. Thank u .

The cam will surely stay on for a while. One thing, Stephi would have needed a few more days until flying away. Another thing is, the cams are used at other sites or go for repair or replacement. But for that Urmas and the people from KK have to first go out and collect them. I think last year it was October by the time it went offline. Still we have watched and noted the things going on, the growing of nettles, the visits of other birds, even a marten ... If you care, you can just take a look through last year's topic and also see what a beautiful brother or sister grew up there last year!

[vainamoinen]

In Hungarian we call them "Békászó sas" meaning "békászó = hunting for frog" , and "sas = eagle"

In Latvia this species is simply "mazais ērglis" - Little eagle". Not very origional.

It seems, Tuuli wont come back to the nest tonight ?!

[Felis silvestris]

I have collected the various names of the LSE for the data base: viewtopic.php?p=124566#p124566

I think either the "screaming" or also the "spots" (like the "spotted" eagle) is in a lot of the names, but I don't understand all of them. Maybe we have some people here who know more?

[Felis silvestris]

I have opened the cam after I came back home from work, but then closed it again. It's a bit painful right now. But I think animals have quite a good instinct, Remo did not come back, most probably Tuuli won't as well. So sad to see the nest empty prematurely!

[Sylvie Lefevre]

I would like to know -if you know- what is the name in latin : aquila pomarina or aquila clanga
because on the books they looks very close each other except that aquila clanga is called in french "aigle criard " that means
eagle screaming

[Starling]

Aquila pomarina.
Aquila clanga is probably greater spotted eagle.

[Felis silvestris]

Aquila pomarina is the Lesser Spotted Eagle, "our" eagles here, Aquila clanga is the Greater Spotted Eagle. The Lesser Spotted Eagle is Aigle pomarin in French!

[Felis silvestris]

A lot of facts about both eagles, their hybrids and their Indian cousin Aquila hastata you can find in the data base here:
viewforum.php?f=53

By the way, today I added an interview with Urmas from KK in French language Nancy found: viewtopic.php?p=162259#p162259

[Amsel67]

Aquila Pomarina means= Eagle (there are real eagles = Aquila) from Pomarin (area of when Germany was still with a king, nowadays part of Poland and Russia) = Pommern-Adler ! (for those who understand a bit German)

[Felis silvestris]

Amsel, may I ask which book you read on raptors? I have bought several in the last few days and weeks, so I am always interested in hearing about interesting ones.


@Maxie - for posting pictures you may want to have a look into our technical threads viewforum.php?f=3. If you still have problems or can't find the solution to your problem, send PM to me or one of the other Admins.

[Amsel67]

Amsel, may I ask which book you read on raptors? I have bought several in the last few days and weeks, so I am always interested in hearing about interesting ones.

Sure! I have the book
Kosmos Naturführer
Mebs - Schmidt
"Die Greifvögel" Europas, Nordafrikas und Vorderasiens

has about 500 pages, with wonderful pictures.

The cover page shows a Lesser spotted eagle, an osprey, a vulture, European Sea-Eagle and a falcon

[Felis silvestris]

I have that on my "wish list" - most probably I will gift this myself for Christmas, it's too expensive to buy "just like that". Manu and I have discussed books on raptors recently here viewtopic.php?f=45&t=300 and shifted to Picnic grounds later. From here viewtopic.php?f=45&t=300 onwards.

thanks so much very interesting and because urmas is talking about "mixity" between pomarina and clanga with some eagles who "mate" together
i hope you understand

[Felis silvestris]

Yes, the "hybrids". When I started the data base, Urmas wrote to me and asked me, if I plan to include the Greater Spotted Eagles and their hybrids, and I said yes, because they belong there somehow, as do the Indian ones. For a long time they were thought a subspecies, now they are one of their own. I think Urmas and his colleagues do a lot of research about the GSE and hybrids.

The nest was empty, when i last looked at it.

[Felis silvestris]

No use to come back, I think animals know such things better than we human beings! Time to get ready for the long journey!
I just hope that we have the luck to see Tuuli and Remo again next year! I really have taken them to my heart by now!

[asteria]

If Tuuli and Remo are going to use the nest next year, they will appear here at least one more time and put a fur-tree branch on the nest before their migration. That will be a clear sign of their return next year, Urmas wrote about it.
