QUOTE ABOUT THE NORWEGIAN NEST FROM SWEDISH FB-SITE HAVSÖRNAR (https://www.facebook.com/groups/861179333923318/):

Audun Lie Dahl: Vi har en teknisk feil ute på øya nå, vi har koblet fra strømmen på landsiden, men vi må vente til batteriene er utladet før vi kan restarte alt. Vi håper det er i ordne i løpet av 2-4 dager alt avhengig av batterikapasitet

Google translation:

Audun Lie Dahl: We have a technical error out on the island now , we unplugged the country side , but we must wait until the batteries are discharged before we can restart everything. We hope it is arrange within 2-4 days depending on battery capacity

Thank you, Owlie, for the information! Now we must be patient.

Hello, Svein . On Lolland (edit: Denmark), we have not had enough sun to charge the batteries in the camera ? ( surely it is not the same with you )

Børge : No, we use 220 ​​V power source for charging the batteries . We must reboot the camera and therefore disconnected from power in country . It takes a few days before the batteries are flat, and we can put on the power again . We could have done this sooner , but then we had been on the island where the base station and the nest is . We will avoid. If you see the report in the lower section http://www.tk.no/reiret/ see how we rigged the camera. I come with an update during the day .

Eagles get free Easter
We send violations stream from the nest to Baron Blue and mistress , so now they are not monitored on some days.

Google translation: We lost the connection to the camera nest Monday night in 22-hours.
We believe that we will get started camera by conducting a restart, ie switching off power for a few seconds and put it back on. Cameras and radiolink powered via two 100 amp batteries.
We could completed a restart by taking the fuse out of the camera at checkout. It stands 50 meters from the nest, but we do not want to be so close nest in this phase of the breeding period. Therefore we have chosen to disconnect the power supply on land by to drain down batteries. This will take 4-5 days. We hope that the camera "log on" when we put the power back on, possibly during the weekend.
Vulnerable
We regret that we have a break in the transmission, but it is a very challenging project we went into when we chose to send 24/7 from an islet on Smøla. The equipment is installed in a place we can not seek, and broadcast will last for several months. Then we must assume that we sometimes will get shorter or longer breaks.
Eagle in shooting
Instead of the stream we will post some video footage from the nest. We are working to bring about a "random solution" to this so that you will be able to see different sequence each time you log in. This we hope to have ready a few hours.

Baronessen has got a name: Baronesse Barfot, which means Baroness Barefoot. As Baron Blå means Baron Blue according to the blue rings in his feet, Baroness got her name as she has no rings in her feet.

On this page there is an interesting video of installation of the camera:

BTW There are 50 WTE couples nesting on this island this year - the worlds tightest area in that meaning!

[Kinga83]

Baronesse Barfot - Baroness Barefoot - "Csupaszláb Báróné" in my language
Really creative name, but not too feminine

I hope all is well Baron Bla and Baronesse Barfot nest!

4th April
There is a dark shadowish picture in the camera of Baron Blå and Baronessen Barfot - maybe the view is going to return soon ... The view looks like the one in the night

[Mamicja]

Both eagles left the nest at dawn.

[Owlie]

Mamicja,

even if the picture is dark, it is light in Norway now, the camera is slowly getting "warm" and the view lighter.

[Mamicja]

Owlie
I don't think it's current view now, sunrise was today at 6:29.
I took pictures about noon.

[Owlie]

I didn't know they send video tapes via this camera, they have a special page for them in the magazine. I thought it was the camera going on slowly ...

[joey]

were are the eggs? were are Mom and Dad?

[Owlie]

were are the eggs? were are Mom and Dad?

You can't see the eggs, they (if they are two) lie in "the alcove" behind the edge sticks. And a parent came back - and the picture went off, it became messy ...

15:08
The parent took off and the picture came back
15:09
Baron Blå returned and arranges the nest and lays down for incubation

@ joey
The parents were absent quite a long time, more than an hour. I heard one of them near the nest, however.

15:15
A magpie on the nest edge and no parents in the nest!

Quote from FB Havsörnar (https://www.facebook.com/groups/861179333923318/)

Lars Magne Roksvåg: Det er ennå problemer med kamera, så det du ser nå er gamle opptak. Vi har tatt strømmen til kamera og venter på at strømmen som er igjen på batteriet går tomt før vi kan resette kamera.
Google translation:
Lars Magne Roksvåg : There are problems with the camera , so what you see now are old recordings. We have taken the camcorder and waiting for the power left in the battery runs out before we can reset the camera .

I guess the recordings can be from the time before eggs
@ Mamicja - you had so right so!

EDIT: Lars said that there will come information when the sending will be direct - where, he didn't tell, but I suppose at the magazine Tidens Krav in Norwegian (http://www.tk.no/vis/direktevideo/reir# and http://www.tk.no/reiret/) or at FB Havsörnar in Norwegian or in Swedish or both. I'll keep you informed if I notice it before you others.

I must say that I am disappointed that they told nowhere of today's recording sending before my questions - I, a fool, believed that the sending was direct and was worried for the absence of the parents for a long time ...

thanks Owlie

[Michi]

I would be thankful if you informed us!

You see now recording from nest camera. We're still waiting on the batteries to be drained so we get started up the camera again. We do it this way as not to disturb the eagles . It takes some time to make it so , but we hope the wait will soon be over .

[Kinga83]

Thanks Owlie, as always
We are waiting

And Happy Easter Everyone !

[Kinga83]

Have a nice day everyone

The camera go again? Or is it still recording ?
Finally there is also sound, I heard Baron Bla's voice
