The Vasuri is a single parent, fishing, feeding chicks and keeping the Intruders away.
Tilda was last held on 28 June.

It is interesting to see how Vasuri can handle the role of mother and father.

It seems, that Vasuri can catch only huge fishes

Thank you Ferenz and Katti for the pictures and videos

13:06 The intruder..

13:09 The same intruder is not a ring male, It descends on the chick's back.

Interesting, what the intruder wants , may be nest for the next year, really he is not dangerous to the big osprets. Today in Estonian and Latvian osprey nests also intruder attacked the females on the nest. But here is not mom protecting the nest , only dad and dad is busy with fishing, three big kids are waiting for food, very difficult situation

Seili - Vasuri with fish & intruder cruising the bay. Youngsters behave feasty...
