17:35 Back with a big branch
17:41 Teo flew away

18:06 He is preening

Too bad, really.
What could have disturbed the female?

The female quota is really not right.
I remember that it was the same with blackbirds after bird flu.

But we can still hope for a few days. =)

But inturn...Irma's nest is constantly visited by other females.

This year is really strange... .

Polly, we consider maybe the female has an own nest and a husband waiting for her and she only made a stop-over here at Teo's nest ??? That would be also possible.

[Cessie]

Balistar, great descriptions and pictures, thank you. And thanks to everyone else, too.

Balistar, I do know, Teo, but I didn’t know of his eye. Thank you! I think that I was only seeing a side view, and I was thinking about the new female, when I was mistaken. Welp, it’s sad that she was on her way elsewhere.
I think that there is still a small chance that Teo will get a mate. Fingers crossed for Teo!

The same for Irma, I have some hope that she is taking small breaks — getting fishes from gentlemen Ospreys, on her path home.

[Polly]

Good morning!

April 26



10:06 A ringed osprey arrived - red ring V28 on the left leg - 10:07 jumped to the cam stand
10:07 The osprey jumped back into the nest, is looking around
10:26 Flew away
10:33 V28 is back, 10:34 flew away , 10:36 back again, is doing some nestwork , I think this V28 is male osprey

Teo arrived with moss.
Didn´t chase V28 off the nest.

I asked in chat nobody is sure if it´s male or female.

FINGERS CROSSED!!!

Keeps his back to the visitor.
They are both silent, Teo flies off again.
