DESIRED fish for UNO! Good Father Super-Madis!
.... Nori arrived the nest some seconds later (too late) ;-) ..... but Nori had a fish at midday time - and Uno got nothing until this delivery.....





HAPPY Uno with his fish


Uno makes very HAPPY sounds while he eats his fish.....

[Starling]

18.10 Uno eats "spaghetti".

18.12 Uno leaves.

18.15 Nori waiting for fish.

18.15 Super-Madis again.

Uno was just in the nest eating fish. Then our Nori flew in. Uno finished the fish and flew away. Nori was on nest by herself calling for madis. Madis delivered a nice fish for Nori. Now, if she had not made such a noise, Elo would not have been alerted. Now there are two in the nest. Nori has not begun to eat yet. she seems to like to tease her sibling. Enough yakking nori.. eat!! Now she is eating. Elo gets none. He is begging Nori for at least a fin. She says, no way! My my, Nori has quite a "big beak". Nori ate and just flew away. Elo sits there looking all alone in the world. But I hear some rustling on the cam. (it can't be Nori...too quiet. Elo looks but seems unimpressed. He's standing on the nest looking over his domain.

[Starling]

18.40 Madis again!

Siblings back.

Madis flying away in left corner.

Elo - the lucky winner.

[Yoko]

One Live fish delivred. Elo catch.

[Cara]

While I typed my last posting, Super-Madis once AGAIN delivered a fish! (I count about 7 or 8 since midday! - morning time I wasn't at the cam, so don't know if or how much he delivered in the morning)..... ELO again got the fish! It's her 4th fish now since midday ..... She will stay in the nest for the night, I suppose because she wouldn't be able to fly after this 4th meal since midday

[Wil Muller]

18:40 Elo gets again a fish from Madis

[Starling]

Elo is watching and holding her "prize".





Not hungry? But definitely not going to give it somebody else.

[terbobun]

6:47pm, nest time...... This is very interesting. Elo has his talans on fish. He hasnt eaten anything yet. Yet, he keeps looking down at fish with wonder. I dont think he is too hungry. Nori is on the other side doing what she does best. yak yak. It has been almost 5 minutes. Elo still hasnt touched fish. Looking at fish, then looking around, then looks back down at fish. I believe Uno is on the web cam as they both keep looking up at it. For myself, I have not seen any of them hold onto fish like this for such a long time.

18:40 Madis brings a fish. The nest is empty, but then: stampede, all three swoop down on him. Madis "falls over board", along with the fish. But he returns an instant later and delivers the prey. Edit: Think I was wrong, probably only two chicks were there.

Fish delivery, first attempt


Nobody home?





Stampede - Madis returns an instant later

[Yoko]

19h05.Elo is not hungry ! .
But ... not agree to give his fish!
How many fishes is she eating today? 4?

[Starling]

Nori tried to approach the fish. But Elo moved a bit and showed she´s not going to give it.

A bit later Elo flew away with the fish.

[terbobun]

Hi Cara!!!! after Elo flew away, then so did Nori. did anyone see her in the background soaring? so pretty.

I spoke too soon.. You know who is back on the nest whining away.

[Starling]

Nori is back. She might know there is still enough light and time for daddy´s fish deliveries.

19.57 Madis, our hero!
