NEST OBSERVATIONS ESTLAT Osprey Nest 1 Madis & Piret ~ 2012

[lispet]

It is Elo.

[Fee]

she looks like a duck...

Lizitas, it's very difficult to adjust the picture? I don't know how to do that...

[asteria]

Today Nori will fly!

Do you mean that you don't know how to put a picture in your post? Just take a screencapture (with the "Druck"- or "Print"-button on your keyboard) and then upload it to tinypic.com. There you'll get an "IMG code forums" which you can put here.

10:16 Waiting for fish?!

Gala Have a nice day :-)


I felt like being an actor in a horror movie
Daylight now and you could hear sounds of steps walking through water underneath the nest. Steps of a human? Sounds like - but there was a sound like a grumble (as bears do?) ..... in between some crows ..... Nori looked very afraid and went flat .....
..... then the voice of Piret in the distance but very loud - answer from Madis ..... you could hear Piret landing at the cam support with loud yell ..... Madis flies past the nest ..... Sounds were very creepy........

Okay, meanwhile I didn't hear that steps anymore and Nori is standing at the left side of the nest and seems to be very well :-)
Piret is yelling very loud..... sounds like she is calling for Madis and breakfast for Nori :mrgren:

But I really wonder WHAT that steps were from?????

:peek:

the tree is in a military area
maybe there are trainings today

last night you saw this special lights

[Yiki]

All three of them on the nest, talking loudly to someone (Piret?) on the cam support. Nori is busy preening (getting ready for the big day?).



Alarm? Nori goes flat, Uno and Elo are big ospreylets and just lie down, heads still raised.

Hi, Lizitas,

thank you for the "stretching pic", I loved that too!

[Kukelke]

Three very talkative youngsters on the nest. Elo on the foreground, Uno & Nori back.



10:22 - The kids went flat after warning calls from Piret (to whom they were 'talking' previously).

[alice44]

The cam is freezing up a bit on me.

I came in because there was so much noise and I saw just one osprey sleeping. I hit refresh and there were three -- talking and listening to an adult off stage.

[Yiki]

Elo is sleepy.

[ivj]

Hi, meierlein, that sounds scary !

[Kukelke]

10:32 - Piret (?) lands on the cam support and the young ones start to talk a lot again.




That branch sticking out is a true nuisance for the birds. It has been there for days, was moved a bit, and apart from Madis, everyone has tried to remove it. This time Elo tries.

[Lizitas]

10:36 Alarm seems to be over.

[ivj]

NORI, ready to take off today?

[Kukelke]

10:45 - Is Nori getting ready for the Big Day? Flapping like never before.


I just caught myself cheering when I saw that: "come on Nori, you can do it!"

[Yiki]

Piret jumps down to the nest but quickly takes off again.

[Kukelke]

Piret jumps down to the nest but quickly takes off again.

...

Giving Nori the final instructions and going through the checklist before take off?

[will(y)]

Piret jumps down to the nest but quickly takes off again.

Well, Piret jumps in nest...

an was thrown out by Nori

[Kukelke]

11:03 - Piret lands on the nest. Seconds after Madis lands too with a fish.





Uno was also on the nest for a minute or so.

[Yiki]

Fish delivery by Madis. Before Nori can move in, Piret snatches the fish.
