Landing in at 10:10 and taking off at 10:40

Right in the moment from landing my connection was not stable, but I think it is better than NO video ;)

8. April

14:13
Someone was gone fishing





14:15
A no-ring female (?)- and now another one is landing on the nest!



Fish could be Bream.

The second osprey landed on the camera

Two ospreys in the nest

Good day! 14:15. Osprey eat fish and looks up to the sky. Someone flies, can Madis...

[Kukelke]

14:16 - Madis and unringed female on the nest:




14:22 - Unringed female eating fish on the nest:




14:30 - Madis landed on the nest, bringing a stick. The female reacted a bit agitated but then went on eating her fish:




14:41 - Madis leaves and the unringed female does a poopshot. Shortly after Madis returns and tried to land on the back of the female. The female is clearly not pleased and doesn't want anything of this (yet).


Whatever happens, this already increases the chances to see chicks on this nest. However, in my heart I want it to be Madis & Piret's chicks ofcourse.

There was a short mating attempt after. Or did he try chase her away?

[Bea]

He is polite and lets her have her fish - but he is not submissive
