mogga, in your above picture Iiris and Ivo seem to have the greatest wingspan of all the birds in the world.

19:06 Ivo in with a stick and enjoys standing on it like a hen on the perch.
19:07 Iiris takes off to find something to eat for supper - it's called "self-catering".
20:51 Ivo rushes in like a bolt from the blue to see that everything is O.K. or better to say - to find what Iiris has left him from her fish.

May 11
Good morning
05:23:34 Ivo with a stick in the sky from the right to the left, making a circle.
05:24:01 Ivo with the stick landing like a pole vaulter, sits on the eggs.
06:29 Iiris brings a piece of bark and replaces Ivo.
08:17 Ivo with a stick and replaces Iiris, she goes self-catering.

Good day, everyone!
Self-catering is a good description, Summi!
Well, she really has to - considering the half-fishes and one quarter fishes that Ivo has been bringing her..

Sunshine, thank you for your comments with great pictures of Iiris and Ivo.
15:00 Ivo lands with a nice fish, hungry Iiris takes some morsels before taking off with it
15:13 Iiris is back, she probably lost the fish

14:21 Ivo comes to take over. Iiris doesn't really want to, she'd rather have fish instead... But what else can she do? Ivo is not reacting...

Iiris is alarmed, her head swings back and forth, she stands up combative and I saw only one large bird disappear, probably another osprey. Sorry about the red line

Iiris takes off with a nice headless fish
15:13
She is back. Probably she ate the fish already? 13 minutes seem to be enough for a very hungry osprey
17:42
Alert, another osprey flew over Iiris's head
