6:55 the eaglets are still calling for fish. I only hear Rahu and Nord.

07:13 was it Raihu who flew från the nest ????

Was it Taibu who fly?? At 7:12??

Katja, it was Rahu. Taibu is sitting on the left branch.

7:12 a parent fly from the left with a fish. Rahu followed immediately

Rahu and Nord are screaming like devils. Taibu squeaks softly.

first from the left to the right to show the fish


then from the right to the left

i think that Rahu is somewhere near the nest. his squeaking can be heard so loud.
(Nord is tenor and Rahu more like a counter-tenor. )

9:36 Rahu (?) flew away from the lower right corner. then his squeak comes from a larger distance.

9:38 Anna brought a fish. what a riot!




Anna had to escape the kids. they were too furious.

9:47 eagle's alarm calls? for humans?


kids were quiet for a while but 9:50 they started calling again.
fish!fish!fish!fish!fish!fish!...

a new delivery attempt. was it a fish or a bird?

what screaming!

This time it was definitely a bird, some kind of duck.

It looks like a bird... well it's gone now

Oh, my ears..

I think it was a mallard. I don't know birds at all.. ;)

Good morning!

09.52
Food arrived, Anna brought something strange, it's not a fish, similar to the mallard...Taibu gets food! Nord also....

this time Anna managed to feed the kids, probably: they were mostly out of sight on the left. at least she stayed a longer time.


it was a bird. maybe an ordinary mallard? certainly not a coot this time.


a slow-motion (1/16 of normal speed) close-up of the delivery.

And Taibu is like alto or even contralto

Taibu is so young that she only a mezzo so far i think. her voice will develop with age. Anna is alto.

mezzo is pronounced the same way as the Finnish word metso which means Western capercaillie (Tetrao urogallus)

more pictures of the undefined duck.

It was Nord who was sitting on parents branch.

If enyone can make a clip with all five calling sounds,
it would be interesting to compare their voices !
