Estonian Osprey Nest ~Mai & Mikk~ (P&M) DOCUMENTATION 2015

[Owlie]

In this afternoon I saw also Cecilia waving her head like three-dimensioning the surroundings for a flight. These girls will fledge very even, I bet, both study their dimensions and train the wings
18:33 about
Shouting towards the cam stand

You maybe mean Cecilia here, Luz?
The chicks beg for fish just as loud as their mom

[Luz4711]

At 18:58h Cecelia pulled at the feathers from her sister (she did this already a minute before) may be to tell her to get up.
Carla got up right away and joined the chorus

YES! Thank you I corrected it.
Mai was on the cam stand a while ago and both called loud in her direction.
Was there no more fish the last few hours? No wonder they are calling so loud.

Actually not really worth to talk about it. But there was a very, very little fish (surrounded by nest material) delivered at 06:58h. Mai did eat herself, did feed Carla and gave a bigger piece to Cecilia with tail. She could not enjoy it too long, Carla took it from her and swallowed the rest in a second. Fish was gone at 07:01h in less than 3 minutes from the time the feeding began - 06:59h. Mai left right after and I hope she went fishing. Mikk and Mai should really do better for their family. Amazing that the girls seem still to be relaxed.

08:36h fish (still alive) after sky dancing sounds and alarm calls. Girls were flat and looking in the sky. Mai and Mikk both came to the nest same time. Both mantling.

Next one 09:33h


Cecilia likes fish tails


Glad that at least a little food arrived this morning. Rain again.

[Luz4711]

10:36h headless one - both girls joined the feeding. After fish is gone (10:50h) Mai calls for more

13.09 Carla made her first flight! At first high jump, then she flew, Cecilia watched...


Mai followed Carla...




13.11... Then Mai first and Carla right after her landed on the nest...

[Bea]

WOW

I just laughed my head away how Mai, worried Mom, was accompanying Carla at her maiden flight



Perfect take-off and landing, Carla!

[Luz4711]

Heavy flying action. Carla has been away often so far for longer times. Cecilia is trying hard to follow her sister but failed so far. She might succeed before the day is over.


14:10h Carla is away from the nest for quiet a while. Coming back with fish.
14:17h Somebody on cam stand. Carla?
14:43h Mikk and Mai came to the nest together. Mikk left, Mai did stay. Carla still not back.
15:01h Mai looking up in air and calling softly.
15:20h Carla back - good girl, that was a long time for the first day - all 3 calling for fish.
15:22h Mai left.

[Birdfriend]

15:21 Carla is back. http://193.40.124.24/2015-kalakotkas-ft ... -15-21.jpg

[Luz4711]

15:27h reward coming in




Carla got the fish tail with a lot of meat on it. She is hungry. I wonder if she was at the lake wit Mom and Dad.

15:27 Mikk delivers a good fish with head to loud yelling family.
