Latvian WtE nest webcamera Juras-erglis Durbe 2019

yes, i suppose it must be something like that. the eaglets try to get straight up and that will not work. it is probably like Ajeta wrote: they have not understood yet that they have to first fly away from the thing they want to get.

Yes, and if food is afoot, they stop thinking straight and obsess about reaching the nest directly = failure (more often than not). Have any of the landings failed when they just are coming to the nest (no fresh food present)?

Ajeta, our precious Durberta failed just like that and became world famous.

13:36 Rika started to look to the right and she called.
she had called already before this every now and then but now she had a special reason: a parent flew by.

14:42 Rika made a round trip to the outer left branch and back.
then she felt the wind in her wings...


... and she flew out.

Crissy You thought you can go on vacation You see, we still have work with those two

Hey Abigyl Well, this is even worse than pre-fledging period, keeping an eye on a teenager eagle is like 24/7 surveillance mode

Good afternoon!

I think I will never forget it. Nice to see the famous landing again.

[Ajeta]

from a branch it is impossible to make a high jump. when one leaps up the legs push down the branch and it will yield and the bird will not gain much height relative to the tree.

What a beastly contradiction, pushing upwards to sink downwards. Life is really hard - your own legs working against you, so to speak.

Thanks for the link, Ame! Durbert = Durberta, right? That was quite a landing indeed - my heart would have stopped had I seen it live for fear of him/her beaking his wings or legs or both. But she solved her problem very spiritedly! Incidentally, was it not that branch that also somehow got meddled in her first flight? What an untrustworthy piece of wood

[ame]

yes Ajeta: Durbert = Durberts= Durberta. the assumption was that Durbert = Durberts was a male. almost all male names in Latvian end with the letter s. this assumption proved later to be wrong (as usual). in the gene test Durberts was found to be a girl and thus the name was transformed to a female form Durberta.

the nest has remained intact. i haven't been listening though.

11:38 fish song? crying stopped. when did it begin? (i'm looking for other calls)

11:34:53, 11:37:02, 11:38:11, 11:39:12, 11:40:01, 11:40:51+
At 11:46:18 voice Milda's?
Judging by Mika's look, Rika flew by under the camera at 12:11:24

[ame]

20:58 fish song?? from very far....

a woodpecker flew to the top. an eaglet is crying in the forest....

[ame]

the woodpecker flew away and the eaglet (Miks probably) went on crying for a while. it also probably flew by but i could not see it.

21:05 quiet. then 'normal' crying.


false warning?

[Ajeta]

Hello Sonchik, that's precisely what I thought, too, Rika's crying sounded like coming from directly between camera and viewer, going left to right. Afterwards she came from the right and tried to get to the nest. From the sound of it she must have been doing quite some flying, before her first landing ("downstairs") as well as afterwards, before she finally returned. Very brave, especially because it seemed rather warm (Raimis and Mika were panting on the nest).

[ame]

21:12 both eaglets are calling in the forest. one is crying a continuous cry and the other is crying every now and then.

21:14 one of them came home. Miks

[ame]

21:22 Rika flew in.


both cried together for a while. then Miks flew out.

[Sonchik]

Mika rubs about a nest again at 21:18, as well as Rika at 13:11.

21:53 parents sang in the forest.
the Moon is in the sky.

[Sonchik]

when?
..

When many times flew by a nest and could not get to it. At us speak "as a blind kitten".
Ajeta described it in the message which I quoted.

[ame]

oh... i didn't understand.
the Moon has already risen above the top. Rika would like to sleep...


me too. i'll go
good night!

21:15:57 an eagle called, Milda, an eaglet?

[Sonchik]

At 22:23 Rika departed.
