NEST OBSERVATIONS ESTLAT Osprey Nest 1 Madis & Piret ~ 2012

[unp]

Still adapting

12:22
Elo just buzzed Nori. Poor Nori seems bummed..

[meierlein]

:peek:

little NORI alone with two big fishes
seems to be scared

[andi7]

13:05 Madis with a fresh fish. Nori cracks the head - seems this one taste better than the older one ...

Nori steps forward to behavior of adult ospreys, who often only eat the head of a fish.

13:26 Two in the nest, one could be heard on the cam

[Kukelke]

Nori home alone and wants to play outside too.


There's only one way, and that is to train more.


Uno comes home to show how it's done.


After Uno's brief visit, Elo returns to the nest too in order to show Nori how it's done.


Nori home alone again, asking himself when it's his turn.

[Kukelke]

Being home alone has some advantages too.

13:04 - Madis arrives with a fish.


"Muhahaha, fish, fish, fish, and it's all mine, MINE!!"

[Estigia]

UNO has returned. He and NORI are eating both fishes (yeah, NORI has a fish on his left claw) don't know where ELO is.


NORI sits shielding the fish under his body (Maybe he is afraid that his fish gets blowed up cause of the wind or something xD) UNO just continues feeding himself.


Suddenly, we can hear a plane. NORI goes flat and UNO is just thinking "Why the hell is that metal bird doing so much noise?"



It's very very windy. The nest moves a lot. Earthquake style I'm worried about ELO

[andi7]

13:39 Uno and Nori at the nest. Nori looked a bit lost, (s)he misses mum and his siblings. Uno follow something in the air with his eyes. A plane was heard, so he could have spotted it in the air.

[Estigia]

17:46 - UNO has flown. NORI is alone and still flat (Sometimes we can hear chirping on the nest surroundings, maybe his siblings are near).

[Kukelke]

14:30 - Someone lands on the cam support, and there's a lot of 'talking' between Nori in the nest and two others on the cam support. But who are the two others? I think I recognised Piret's calls, but I'm not 100% sure. The other bird calling sounds like Elo.

[meierlein]

I saw the transmitter

[Antoinette]

[IKat]

Piret makes a brief (and noisy) visit.....

[Wika]

14:36
Piret visits Nori with transmitter on her back

[Morlach]

Did someone hear something like that at 12.30 ? hmmm..
Thinking where is ELO? Hope he is not in trouble.

Elo is on the nest now, looking just fine

[Galina]

15:15 Elo visits Nori, Nori is like "where have you been?"

[Kukelke]

Elo is on the nest now, looking just fine

...

Elo on the nest indeed, safe and sound:

[meierlein]

:peek:


ELO dropped in
NORI is hiding her fish?

[Lunan]

15.21: Elo is back again, and Nori is wing training.

[meierlein]

:peek:

little NORI is jumping high

it will not take long and she will follow her siblings
to find out, where the fishes come from

[Antoinette]

Elo: This is how you do it....



Nori: I know that... see??
