Thanks you Fleur and others members :)

15:34 Macho delivered a very, very good sized vole and Metra had to work a time to gobble it down

Picture quality is not as good as usual, the tree with Metra and the nest is swayed hard by the wind

MAY 31 Good morning
Fortunately the wind has calmed down. Metra has been lying in the nest all morning, I have not seen Macho yet.
09:32

21:36 - Metra is sleeping. I have not seen Macho today.

June 1

A windy afternoon - again..


18:14 - It has started raining, nothing else to do but sleep:

No one has seen Machos visits today either..

A miserable night with rain and wind

20:38 - Poor Metra is soaking wet..

- and maybe dizzy

poor Metra, she is so wet

June 2
6:52
Metra still wet

7:18
Metra turns the eggs, no Macho yet

7:45
I do not know what to say on these images
I hope all is well with Metra

8:26
I have not heard Metra begging for food
The wind blows hard again


...someone has already written, and I think also that Macho brings far too little prey

Good morning
At least it is not raining this morning, but it is very windy Maybe that is why Macho has not been with food yet, and why Metra has not called. Maybe she feel that she have to protect the eggs? It is only my guess, I do not know
Compared to last year, we see much more of Macho this year (at least I do) Last year we hardly saw him at all, and Metra had to leave the nest more often. But someone from the Latvian forum told us that sometimes he can give her food outside of the nest, where we can not see (if I remember correct). I hope/think things will change when the chick arrives..I do not see Koit in the Estonian nest so often either, but Remo - he is something for himself..
(Maybe someone from Latvian forum can reassure us )

Macho with prey

Fleur, I am so happy that you saw the prey, because Macho was in the nest when I opened the cam so I did not see if he brought anything..although I assumed he did..
11:20 - at last...

After being silent all morning, Metra is now more loud. She wants more food

11:54
Metra is hungry. Please, may i have another one?

12:11
second prey

12:12 - Metra is on the left branch, it looks as If she is eating something?


Edit: ok, second prey, thank you Fleur:)

I have to go shopping..
