17:45 One osprey in the nest
17:49 A sudden noise, engine sounds, the bird gets up, seems to be alarmed.
It´s the female: no rings. There´s still just one egg, but I think you are right macdoum, the second one must be on the way after three days…
Edit: Tomorrow afternoon? :book:
17:53 She sits down on the egg again
18:04 Male returns to the nest with a fish. Apparently she wants to eat it, but he didn´t let her. He leaves the nest, taking the fish with him
18:05 Female jumps on the cam
18:13 Female comes back
18:26 Female still in the nest

18:36 One eagle at home
18:39 The bird gets up for a moment: it´s the female. Still one egg in the nest
18:48 She´s sleepy, and she´s panting almost all the time. Her breath is quite often audible with headphones
18:52 She jumps on the cam
18:54 Loud chirping: male returns to the nest
18:54-19:08 He stood there, the egg between his feet, looked around, rolled the egg a bit and touched it several times with his beak. The female is still audible from the cam or perch near the cam
19:08 Male leaves; egg alone in nest, female on the cam. She´s chirping
19:10 She jumps into the nest
19:11 She sits down on the egg
19:16 She gets up, rolls the egg, sits down, arranges the nest material a bit
19:20 She´s calling; sounds from the cam
19:22 She´s calling and falling asleep every now and then
About 19:30: She´s chirping softly every few seconds
19:39 The female seems to be very tired. Sometimes still sounds from the cam; maybe the male is there
19:53 The female is still on nest

17.14+ Camera time
Another bird flashed past in background, medium sized, seemed smaller than osprey.


So sorry, Mutikluti! Hopefully the photos will be sorted out.


EDIT: Checked Pontu, the bird was so quick, it wasn't on record. At 17.15 Madis/Piret is looking towards where it went past
