Sofija - yes, the webcam will be linked to us soon now. Maybe today, even. We are waiting for the link on the LK main page.

Check on page one of the discussion topic and see if it is live yet.

Question about LSE on black stork nest

Is not it too late for eggs?

It seems to be late, but this year also WtEs started late.
Think mostly depends egg laying on food, if male eagle brings enough food into nest then female will lay egg(s).
In general, this year is vole poor in these areas...

It was taken bloodtest (or was it feathers :puzzled: ) of Spot when he/she was ringed. It was aboute if Spot was a real LSE and which sex it was.
I wonder if we have some answer of this question and if someone have seen Spot this year. Please :bow:

Yes, Joosep took couple of feathers during ringing and according DNA Spot was a girl (determined by Ülo).
The species is pure LSE.

Nobody informed us about seeing Spot after the realizing form Nigula shelter Oct 2009. But we let you know, if some info arrives.

Thank you so much Urmas! :bow: A GIRL! It was what I said all the time when we guessed what it was. I said girl, because she was both beautiful AND brave :headroll:

A question regarding the tragedy in Gints and Grieta's nest. As there were no traces of fight there, can it be that the predator just distracted Grieta from the nest, otherwise she would defend the chick? Even small and weak birds fight to defend their chicks by all means even when the enemy is much larger and stronger. Or maybe Grieta left the nest for a short time and it was enough to steal the chick.

As much as I know from communication with Ugis, there were not evidents to determine an intruder. Eagles are not well seeing in darkness, so to fight like a blind - probably it was simply best time for some other creature to act...

Hi, :wave:

Is it possible or has there been a case where LSEs have had 2 (or more) eggs and all the chicks survived? :puzzled:

Starling, I am certainly not the expert to answer you, but I have read a few papers that suggest it is "rare." The study cited in this post http://www.looduskalender.ee/forum/viewtopic.php?p=133597#p133597 suggests that the second chick is fully as viable as the first if removed from the nest.
