hello dear all!
I am watching this forum since a few weeks and after the return of the begging lady I am wondering if it is possible that theo and v 28 will become parents in this saison?
and by the way: thanks for all your reportings and comments!

[Gavril]

21:01 she is sweet chirping, is that an offer for Teo ?

After these fish, V28 is simply obliged to fall in love with our best fisherman in Latvia, Teo!

Most likely this pair will not be this season parents. Firstly V28 young for motherhood, the second lost time for a favorable course of the development of the Chicks. Chicks need to stand on the wing and learn how to fish before migrating to warmer climes.

15:22. Teo justifies its title of the best fisherman in Latvia. In cloudy weather, he brought for V28 beautiful headless fish. Teo never experienced the nerves of the girl and gave her the fish. V28 a minute later, flew away with the fish.

[Hellem]

19:25 V28 is screaming on the cam stand
19:49 Teo brought a BIG headless fish, V28 grabbed it immediately and flew away

19:58 Teo left

21:11 Teo is back with another fish , is standing and waiting
21:21 He flew away with the fish

[balistar]

13:54 Teo flies off..... but only for to return.... to the cam stand

[Gavril]

Good day! Thanks for the reports, pictures and comments, Hellem, balister and Abigyl! Teo as Pygmalion sculpts from V28 future wife-osprey. And secretly! 16:33. V28 asks for fish on his pedestal. Teo brought a beautiful fish still alive. A minute later, V28, jumping down into the socket firmly and brazenly took fish from Teo. 16:35. V28 flew away with fish in the forest.



16:39. After cleaning the feathers, a little work, Teo flew away.

[Gavril]

16:42. Teo brought a stick and worked some more. 16:43. Teo worked hard. He's strong! 16:46. Teo flew away.

[Birdfriend]

Good day!
So what is that on the nest?! Now it looks like a huge branch to me, at first I thought a big bird!


Someone, most likely V28 is calling from the cam, strong windy there.
