Poor little chicks, they could not sleep very well... mum is doing some housework...
I'm curious, when this branches lying on a right place

I´ll add that
20.48 Madis again brought fish to nest http://pontu.eenet.ee/kalakotkas/2012-0 ... -20-48.jpg and Piret began feeding. Madis flew quickly again. This fish was big enough then all 3 chicks in the end turned away, satisfied and a bit more than just a small piece of tail was left for Piret as with the previous fish.
5:01 Piret returns with a branch. the way the chicks have been churbling and bouncing, I think they are not very hungry.
5:10 Madis delivers a headless fish - and it turns out that those chicks are happy to eat!

Osprey cannot digest the fish bones or scales, so they are stored in the crop, molded into a pellet, and cast. I have never seen one actually do this, either, jopie. I was watching Piret make what I call "chicken neck dance" movements yesterday - she would be moving food form her crop to her stomach.
Thanks Nancy, and I thought Piret had a fishbone stuck in her throat, and a few minutes later 1 of the chicks did almost the same.

good morning all
thanks for early mornig news
Have watched on and off since 9.30 and not much had happened. Chicks have been sleeping, have just changed position from time to time and Piret upstairs all the time.
Chick 2 was awake for some time few minuts ago. And now I hear one or two of them, perhaps they want some food soon
Do wish everyone a nice day at the cam.

13.10 (about)
Feeding of a large fish: number 2 first, second number 3.
Meanwhile number 1 is trying to take bites from the tail.
Piret doesn't like it and pulls the fish away.
But I think number 1 succeeded in biting a little piece of the fish (not the tail)
