It would be an "express-hatch" if we would get to see osprets already now - we still need patience for quite a while ...
Pfffhhh .... this "p-word"

But I can recommend to go on hatch-watch at the Estonian Black Stork cam ..... one can hear egg-talk already and the first Black Storklet is about to hatch soon

around 12.50
Eggs were alone for some time. Iiris was flying to the dead tree, Ivo came to join her and then he flew back to the nest to incubate. Iiris flew into the woods.

12:51
ivo comes on the nest.

13:05
The ever alert and sharp Ivo is on the nest duties



13:28
He is off the nest with an alarm signal
13:31
Back again

15:11
Ivo off and Iiris in.

16:44
Ivo arrived with some nest material and looked as if he is eager to over-take the nest duties





Iiris let him do that

18:29
Iiris returned after a longer break. She has eaten well (fish remainders are on her beak).



18:30
Ivo has mixed up the date and time of the year
Needless to say, Iiris just shovelled him off.

Hi, These are from kalakotkas2, is there any news on the other kalakotkas? The mom
seems to be all alone. Anyone seen the daddy?
Great pictures!
Thank-you,
Bob

Iiris is on the nest. Ivo is on a tree. Very windy, but there is no rain and not cold ... Hooray. Summer is coming soon.

19:52
Iiris ate the fish tail which she had brought to the nest just before

bobbearnhusa, all seems just fine with the other Estonian osprey nest, both parents on the nest in the evening.

I found the daddy but can't figure out how to share the photo.

A very peaceful evening in Estonia. And what a lovely bird chorus!
Iiris seems to be enjoying it, too



There should be a very nice weather the next days.

21:15
It would be so nice to be on that nest now and see what Iiris sees (beautiful forest and sunset), and hear what she hears (amazing, calming symphony of birds)

21: 58
Breathtaking colours of the sunset, and of course the same at sunrise. Thank you, Urmas, for adjusting the cam so that more of the sky is also seen. Perfect view.

05:43 first little stork hatches

Good morning everybody!
On the nest of Ivo and Iris a sunny day, the sky is blue, the wind does not carry our nest away.
Сoncentrated Ivo incubates, Iiris flies somewhere, perhaps catches breakfast for himself.



Congratulations to Estonia with a new little stork. He is very very cute.

10:17
Ivo and his camouflage from the bark.

10:37
Iiris flew off the tree with an alarm signal, Ivo also left the nest.
Then he made a circle around the nest and sat on a tree.
10:39
Iiris flew to the nest.
