And since I've been recording all day in the hope to catch Elar taking off, I can as well show Aino's earlier takeoff:

Elar is back :) Or is it Aino? Show me your ring ... it is Aino

Ilmar delivers a fish, Aino gets it .... Irma came to the nest also, but gets (still ?) nothing of this fish.
No sign of Elar. The Tench was still flapping.

20:43 Aino still working on the fish, Elar (at least it sounds like a youngster) calling nearby, someone is on cam
20:45 Aino jumping to the rim,
20:47 Aino cleaning beak at a branch
20:48 Aino calling for fish and making these squeaking sounds they made after a successful jump, takes off, nest empty except for piece of fish in the centre

18:00 After Elar left an osprey circled in front of the forest, maybe Elar

Ilmar with the next big fish on the nest, seconds later Aino arrived, then Irma comes to the nest, she takes the Tench over. Aino is begging.
It could be that Elar is somewhere right side, lower from the nest position. Irma had some looks to this area.

21:30
Elar is back on the nest!

Not very elegant landing, but who cares ....

First Aino arrived and watched Elar coming in .... one can see Elar circling in the background and then only has to watch Aino to know, where Elar was flying

Elar finds leftover fish and is having dinner

21:30 - Elar back on the nest:

Already a few minutes before his return we could hear Elar nearby, as wingflapping and the typical sounds of a wing-training osplet could be heard, while Aino neither moved nor shouted on the nest.

Just as I switched to the stork camera for three minutes. Grmblgrmblgrmbl.

21:33 Flying makes little ospreys hungry:

As far as I could see, Elar stayed alone on the nest

Elar was eating the leftover of the 20:22-fish which Aino dropped in the centre of the nest before he/she was fed by Irma of the 20:57-fish. Elar has eaten until 21:58, but left a small piece of fish for the next meal.

22:00 Elar flapping wings
22:30 Elar sitting on his/her favourite spot since 22:01, at 22:45 the silhouette of Elar still visible on the same spot

August 5

4:00 A bit of light over the horizon.
4:18 Just light enough to see one osprey on the right rim - probably Elar. He chirps a few times and looks around.

Good morning to all!

10:18 - Elar left the nest, but only for a short round - is back in the same minute ..... with a perfect landing ;)

10:39 - Aino came for a very short stop on the nest (only seconds), Elar was preening

11:00 - Irma with a bunch of new dry nest material

11:00 - In the same minute Ilmar arrives with a headless fish - Elar grabs it! Breakfast!

11:03
Aino arrives and wants breakfast, too ... but Elar is holding the fish

Irma comes down from the cam support and wants also her share of the fish, Elar was ready with it.
Aino gets close to Irma and begs for fish.

11:56 Elar is dozing in the sun on her/his lovely place in the nest.

Ilmar delivers a still gasping fish to Elar on the nest.
