Re: ESTLAT Osprey Nest Webcam Discussion 2012
20;21 Madis has eaten all of that fish,now he's eating the 'reserve' fish.
He's even going all around the nest picking up the forgotten pieces.
Piret is NOT HAPPY.
20:24 Madis flew away.

@ Nancy: Madis arrived at 20:10 as you said, but without fish (see picture) - he fooled me with this trick earlier (19:31)! He lands very fast, snatches the fish and leaves the nest...

Madis arrives with a piece of bark. Doesn't he understand or doesn't he want to understand?
Edit: Piret wants fish, obvious.

Unless I´m mistaken, he changed a stick (which he brought) into a fish from the nest earlier this day. Maybe he thought it woud work again? And he fooled Nancy and me twice today - we thought at two different occasions he brought a fish, but he just snatched one from the nest . I think it was Millie who has mentioned they would do things like this...jopie wrote:21.10

I think he´s self adjusting. Everything seems to be fine.jopie wrote:Maybe the male really has a kind of adjusting problem? I don't know if that is possible First on the eggs all the time, now only allowed to watch and bring fish. If he was human one could say he is jealous

But NOW he brings one, good sized fish, difficult to get it loose, but Piret has it.
Edit: and she starts preparing the fish to be fed.

I guess they really have to still learn a lot, Madis just came with a fish and they played tug.of-war over the eggs and the little one Stepping on everything ...
But now dinner!

You´re right, this time he brought it, without any doubt. Again a complete fish with head. And it seemed indeed difficult for him to loose the grip. (Or he just don´t wanted to, who knows )jopie wrote:21.37

Here is the video from 18:37 - Madis brings a stick and leaves the nest with a fish. A good exchanche, I think, if you are a fish eagle
