good morning!
10:06:about 15 an eagle flew by from left to right. - this is Milda on the nest, right? so the eagle who flew was probably Raimis as the one on the nest stayed calm.

10:08:02 an eagle flew by on the left side of the nest. ... and Raimis in with hay.

now at last i have some clips from this morning. i had such a huge amount of all different kinds of problems in making them that i don't even like to think about it any more...

8:09 Raimis flew to the top branch.
8:10 he came down to the nest and at the same time another eagle, probably Milda flew over the nest tree. the tree didn't shake so she didn't land on the top.
edit: i was wrong after all and Liz was right: the eagle landed on the top. i didn't listen carefully enough.

8:12 Raimis jumped to the left branch and showed his tail spots. he continued to the top branch.

8:16 a big bird landed on the tree top.
Edit: the eagle was already there! the sound was so loud and the tree shook so much that the eagle probably jumped to another branch. they always lands much more smoothly.
later it turned out that it was Milda. Raimis retuned to the nest. he rubbed his bottom against the nest.

8:20 Raimis jumped to the right branch and started gnawing it.
8:21 Milda dropped down to the nest from the top.

8:27 Milda went to the top branch. Raimis continued his never-ending work with the right branch.

8:39 he gave up with the branch and flew away.

8:47 Milda flew away.

9:01 a greater spotted woodpecker made a short visit.

9:49 Milda brought a stick. Raimis flew by from left to right.

9:51 Raimis flew by the nest tree to the opposite direction. Milda rubbed her bottom against the nest. they both have the same trouble, some sort of ohyra as Swedes say, vermins. the Swedish word hyra means '(to) rent' and the suffix o- means the same as non- in English so the combination o-hyra sounds like 'unwanted tenants' in my ears.

Raimis flew around the nest again and then he brought some hay. Then they worked a little, having some disagreement about where to put sticks. Raimis is so determined that he usually gets the last word.

9:52 Milda flew out.

9:54 Milda brought a small stick. Raimis went to the left branch.

9:55 Milda went to the top branch.

9:58 Raimis brought a stick. they worked a little together...
9:59 Milda went to the top branch.

10:00 Milda flew away.

10:02 Raimis went to the outer left branch. then flapflapflapflapflapflap.... Milda was flying back home with a stick, directly towards Raimis. Raimis had to take off and fly away to avoid a collision with her.

10:06:21 a big bird flew by the nest tree from left to right. the light was very bad but i think it was Raimis.

10:08:01 a white-tailed eagle flew by the nest again on the left side. 12 s later the eagle returned from the right and flew to the nest with hay: Raimis.
he arranged some sticks.

10:10 Milda kissed (pecked) Raimis twice. Raimis thought it was best to get away from her reach and went to the left branch, the outer. the near left branch is not far enough.

then Milda got up to the top balcony. she ruffled her feathers right in front of Raimis but he remained strong and didn't pull her tail.

10:13 Raimis flew away and a few seconds later Milda followed him.

10:16 Raimis brought a stick. he worked with big sticks...
10:17 Milda brought a thin stick.

10:17:49 a raven flew to the top of the tree. there was a knocking sound. the raven probably was knocking his beak at the eagles. they looked up and listened... then Milda pecked Raimis in the face, in her frustration. poor Raimis.

then Milda called at the raven. Raimis jumped to the outer left branch.
the raven kept on clicking his beak upstairs.
10:18:54 the raven flew away and called from a distance.
