Can you or somebody else find pontu pictures before 12:35 today, when I noticed the bleeding in Ilmar's leg?
Later in the afternoon I noticed the crow chasing Ilmar aggressively from the tree and then Irma in the air. It was a crow, I heard it.
(Unfortunately Photobucket doesn't seem to work in my Linux system and I cannot provide any pictures)

22:07

What an amazing amount of bird sounds - I never heard such before, even if I have visited several bird lakes, a magnificent night experience, I recommend with full volume this time of the day!

In North Finland at the Osprey nest we still have light (even if still not the midnight sun): http://kotinetti.suomi.net/saaksi/index.php

5/12 09:23 The feathers looked like a little Brown.
In other pontu pictures, Ilmar's right leg was covered by feathers.
Hope someone will have better clear pictures.

Good girl Irma! 2nd egg!

7.13 Ilmar tries to mate. Irma didn´t seem so excited about it.

7.14 Ilmar sees the eggs.

Irma leaves.

Congratulations on the second egg to Ilmar and Irma! I hope Ilmar is not badly injured and that the leg wound does not get infected. Thinking hopefully for all! Love this nest, Madis & Piret, and Sulev & Linda. And the LSE and black stork nests............

So happy for Ilmar and Irma! Ilmar was so excited when he finally saw the 2nd egg.

10:26 Irma's crop is empty.
Did Ilmar bring in fish today?

congratulations Ilmar and Irma
thank you for the video starling

Congratulations to 2 eggs!!

Congratulations Irma and Ilmar for the second egg!
And keep an eye on those egg thiefs crows nearby!


11:15 Ilmar flew to the tree to enjoy his fish

Thank you Starling for the video!
It looks like Irma can not sit on the egg right after laying it, is the egg maybe fragile in the very beginning?
