Anna´s complaints were succussful and Uku shared the fish - gentlemanlike ;)

Fish was finished at 14:40, Anna cleaned her beak in the dry hay in the nestbowl



14:17
After they shared the fish and both had a good meal ---> mating :)

14.17
Fisherman Uku arrived...


...one minute later arrived Anna...




Uku didn't give to Anna this fish, he continued eating...

[ame]

Uku does not want to give the fish to Anna, at least not yet. it's almost like a family quarrel. Uku is very determined!

it is such a big fish that there ought to be enough for the both of them.

edit: of course Anna got her way in the end.
Uku gave up the fish and jumped to the branch. Anna began slowly eating.

Uku jumped on the branch and gave those fish remains to Anna at last...




If this fish was eaten (Uku didn't get anymore nothing)...they began to work again...

[ame]

14:48 mating on the branch but was this only an attempt? probably it was successful after all.
i made a close-up clip.


as foreplay they did some nestwork.

Anna is staying.

[Hellem]

15:40 Anna jumped from the branch on the nest.
16:15 She is still standing on the same place.

[ame]

i wonder if this is the 'cat-with-hard-tummy-on-litterbox' -position now?


- maybe not quite, not yet.

@hagnat
seems to be too early for Greenish warblers (Phylloscopus trochiloides) in Estonia, usually can be met in April at the earliest

[ame]

it was not the 'cat-on-littebox' -time yet.
Anna gacked her throat for a few times. probably she was trying regurgitate a pellet but it didn't come up... then she went to the branch.

[ame]

17:05 someone flew by the nest and Anna called to it. probably it was Uku.
17:06 Anna flew out.

[Mutikluti]

18.16
Both arrived together at home.




18.18
Anna tested the nest hole...


18.18
"No-no, at night I don't want to stay here"...Anna left...

[Hellem]

18:22 Uku jumped on the branch and then flew off.

[Hagnat]

I heard a singing Greenish warbler (Phylloscopus trochiloides).
Isn't that very early?

Yes, I suspected something like that. That's why I thought it worth mentioning.
I only noted an approximate time of 08:05, but in the archived video I found it slightly earlier. Song at 07:59:27, 07:59:44 and 07:59:59.
Please check it out and report it when you agree.
The video is this one: http://193.40.124.24/2016-merikotkas/me ... -06-55.mkv
(Perhaps someone can make a clip and post it)

[Mutikluti]

After leaving of Anna, Uku cleaned the nest from the fish scales...


18.22
Uku flew away...


Our camera was closed at 18.26
