Latvian WtE nest webcamera Juras-erglis Durbe 2018

I watched it again and again.

The stranger came from the top tree

It was so stormy and noisy at that time, that perhaps he was up there all the time.

good mornign!
light is coming... it's windy.

Abigyl, i watched the video again, too. Raimis seemed to look down mostly and sometimes up but only very briefly. there was probably something 'funny' on the ground. the other eagle may have been Milda. Raimis was not worried about someone on the top. about a stranger he would have been much more upset. Milda could have been up on the top anyway. the wind was so strong that it was impossible to see or hear anyone landing on the top.

8:47 some eagle's voices from the forest.


8:48 some more voices. this time maybe talking to ravens.

[Abigyl]

Good Morning !

Ame, It make sense !!

Today looks a little better ?

[ame]

10:55 a raven flew quietly to the top. then it came down to the top branch.
another raven to the right branch. they are exceptionally quiet today.
10:57 the silence was broken! they are not mute.
... they flew away.
.. no, they came back.
11:01 maybe now they flew away for good.


12:19:04 two swans flew singing by, rather far, unfortunately.

[ame]

12:25 a raven is talking near.... please give the ggnauck-voice.
he came to the poop branch. this is an adult with black throat.
12:28 he flew away without giving the voice that i was hoping to hear.

Thanks !!

I love to hear them

Last week, I opened the cam in the evening, when it was completely dark, and heard them singing when they came back from work

In previous years they flew under the horizon, in front of cam but far from the tree.
In the last months they are flying nearby and we can hear them better.

13:19 mega2 saw an eagle flew away from the top. i haven't found the arrival yet, but i think that the eagle was sitting in the top. although the wind was hard and loud there was a sound of take-off and the tree shook in that way.


edit: i could not find the eagle coming after the raven flew away at 12:27. either the eagle landed very-very softly during a loud gust of wind or the eagle only flew over the tree top.

[ame]

17:33 a sound like someone landing on the nest!?
now it would be really nice to have night vision!

17:34:43 gnnrrr!
was that a raven's voice?
someone is doing something on the nest...

[Abigyl]

17:33 ??

17:36 ?? stronger. Wings?

17:33/34 - saw in the dark a movement on the top L branch. Wind?

[ame]

i'm trying to increase light and contrast in the video to see better, but i'm afraid it will not work.

those were strange voices, weren't they? it would really nice to know who it was.

here's the video with light enhancement. at 17:33:50 there is someone on the top branch, someone much smaller than an eagle. a raven probably.

[Abigyl]

Yes Ame, I thought it must be smaller. This raven is taking control of the nest day & night

there is sniffing to hear at 17:35:17/18 (directly after some cracking sounds).
May be a marten. Or are there Raccoons in this region?

[laranjeiras]

Ramis landed at 14.25 and Milda joined him at 14.34 - both gone by 14.46

[Liz01]

14:25:17 Raimis flew around the nest and lands a few seconds later
14:27 Raimis jumps on the lefdt branch
14:34: Milda comes to the nest and Raimis too
14:44 Raimis flew away
Milda flew right after him

14:45 Raimis returned


14:46 flew away again

[Abigyl]

Ame, Milda brought some greenery, on a branch.

She lost it on the left rim, at the basement, only the tip of the branch arrived
