Jürgen, you did a great job to record the event so thoroughly. Thanks for telling us all about it.

The two WTE's stayed away for many more than 6 hours, one year, I don't remember exactly, but it was a " -teen" number Maybe 14 or 16? It was a great relief, all around the world, when they returned.

Jürgen and all Kotkaklubi Eaglemen - thanks a lot for your report, the great pictures and the story around the event, it is so interesting to learn more about the surrounding, how to trap an eagle, how to climb such a tree :faint: (Ülo! :thumbs: ) and much more.

And finally Ilmar and Irma went back to everydays business again with the fish - just good to see :loveshower:

Errrmmm.... I think it could have been a Common Carp :mrgreen:

Irma takes to herself great trouble, that everybody of her chicks becomes full.

What a relief... Image ... yet this all makes me think how vulnerable the wild nature is, I never knew it. and how delicate we - people should be with nature around us :hi: .

edit: it does not refer to our guys who are so dedicated, caring, courageous .... Image

it has seen its best years sometime in the previous millenium. :whistling:
:rotf:
Maybe we should make donations for a new fake WTE :nod:
