Latvian Osprey Nest 2015 - Laima & Pēteris

[Gavril]

Good Morning !

08:53 Only 2 chicks on the nest.

08:58 The third is back, he is on the left side; was he simply out of Cam?

Most likely, it is. They like the left side of the slot. Perhaps this really will be the launching pad for Chicks.

9:13. Raiskums eaten the fish, cleaned the beak and began construction of the nest. Amata ate a fallen piece of fish.

[Gavril]

9:28. Reiskums. 9:31. Ungurs shoots.

[Gavril]

9:35. Ungurs jumps left and flies away from there. A minute later he comes back and is a bit awkward landing. He triumphantly sings! In the woods screaming Buzzard (?)

[Gavril]

9:45. Ungurs again flew from the nest to the left, scaring his brother and sister. Circled over the nest few seconds, it successfully landed on...Raiskums.

[Abigyl]

10:05 One of the chicks flew away.

Came back a minute later. Nice landing!

[Gavril]

10:05. Ungurs feels like a winner! She took off again and landed this time successfully. 10:00. Raiskums also flew with convenient locations. After a while, well she landed in the nest. О! Извините, в 10:00 улетела Raiskums, в в 10:05.- Ungurs.

[Gavril]

10:26. Ungurs, Amata and Raiskums. The rain intensified. 10:29. However, rain is not a hindrance for training Amata.

[Gavril]

11:06. Ungurs Raiskums and sleep under the pelting of the rain, and Amata makes a shot. 11:17. In the nest reigns spleen.

[Bea]

What??? The second one also already fledged today? They seem to be in a hurry now

[Abigyl]

Bea they both had a good breakfast...

The little one picked left overs and tried his wing a little.

[Birdfriend]

They are stand on the nest like penguines! What a bad weather today!

[Gavril]

11:43. Ungurs wants to fly!

[Abigyl]

I was not surprised to see them flying because I had the feeling that both will fly today or tomorrow.

Yesterday I saw the two of them took apart the rim, remove the sticks and then peeled their husks.

It was just like on the other nests, this was what the Buzz, Wte and even the BS did while branching and 1-2 days before they were ready to fledge.
Their mother came with a new stick... Like Durbe did.

A while ago I looked for articles about it, to understand better, but there was not much written about it.

[Gavril]

12:44. Amata, as the youngest, seeking protection from the rain with her older Ungurs.

[Gavril]

15:19. The rain has ended. The Chicks have dried up. Ungurs exercising. 15:30. Amata during the jump grabbed claws building material. 15:33. Amata shows a good jump. 15:37. Someone flies past the nest.

[Gavril]

15:43. With a brief visit Laima. Immediately flew away from the nest and after a minute came back. Ungurs mother showed his ability to fly. She flew from the nest and after a few seconds returned. Laima satisfied flew away from the nest.

[Gavril]

15:50. Ungurs jumped right and from there flew from the nest. Raiskums Amata and anxiously watch the flight of the sisters. 15:51. Ungurs back, a little awkward landing on the right.

[andi7]

15:50 N96 circling over the nest, siblings watching with fear to be mistaken as landing platform
15:51 N96 crashing on the rim, ospret jumps away

[Gavril]

16:14. Perkons flew to visit their grown Chicks. However, the children met him with the question - where are the fish? Peteris immediately left the nest.
