It's a good sign. I remember Tuuli spent at least one night on the nest before eggs, and also Betina from the Latvian nest was there yesterday when it became dark, today the first egg came.

2. May
Good morning
Magnus was lying in the nest when I opened the cam at 06:45
06:51 - He stod up
06:54 - he left the nest
After he left, LSE was calling from the forest.

Magnus checks the nest for comfort and makes a few improvements
Both appeared during the morning several times with sticks and conifer branches for doing some more nestwork
Cam archive started at 05:04 and the female was still there (I suppose she was there the whole night)

Silly me, it is not Magnus, I got misled by the feather sticking out his back. It is the female (Thank you Felis Silvestris

It is the female LSE, and maybe we are getting an egg now, she seems tense. And very wet.
And the male's name is Magnus, not Markus.

Not the ideal time to have the egg, stormy as it is.

You are right, Felis, she seems uneasy and she is slightly opening and closing her beak as if she is silently quacking, like in the osprey nest.
19:38: She is in labour. I clearly see her belly contracting.
And she is looking down between her legs a lot.
