asteria, may be LSE or LSE/GSE hybrids, I hope Kotkaklubi will explain sometime

Tatyana, yes it's not GSE's behavior , also they are building the nest differently

[Tatyana]

18.21 Mating.

In behavior they are similar to LSE Magnus and Maya (in my opinion).

[Hellem]

19:40 The female flew away
19:45 The male landed, is doing nestwork a bit

19:49 She flies away
19:52 Female is back, tests the nest bowl
19:56 Male with a dry twig, mating, he leaves

[chrisitz]

I never saw Tönn and Tiu mating in the nest. do you mean this with the different behaviour?
but I hope that it is Tiu and she had found a new Partner.
much more better would be, that it is Tönn.... ...this cant be, or?

[Hellem]

chrisitz , it's a new couple and they are not GSE, probably LSE or LSE/GSE hybrid. Different behaviour is meant between LSE and GSE

[Hellem]

20:43 Male came for mating and left
20:46 Male brings a spruce twig, very interesting behavior between them , male flies away
21:50 Male with a dry twig, jumped to the right branch and left, 20:53 female flew away
20:58 Another branch by male, is doing nestwork and leaves
21:04 The female is in the nest, 21:08 she flies away

[IceAge]

It is very difficult even for experts to distinguish.
20:46

[asteria]

If they get an eaglet and it grows up, it will be clear who is who. Young LSEs have a red spot on the head while GSEs don't.
