Latvian Osprey nest 2019-2023

[balistar]

13:56 mating attempt, failed


14:02 V28 to the cam stand, her shadow can be seen well, she is chirping / calling


14:10 Teo in with a huge branch

[balistar]

14:10 Teo moves the huge branch, she is watching him working


14:11 mating attempt on the cam stand (we can see it all with the help of sun/shadow )


14:19 Teo back, moved a piece of bark and a stick, then in defensive pose


14:21 mating on the cam stand, successfully ?
14:24 Teo off, Lady V28 on the cam stand is calling

Go, Teo, go, get her a fish

[Hellem]

14:30 Teo brought a small still alive fish

14:39 Teo flew away with his fish, 14:40 he is back, 14:41 off, 14:42 back

[balistar]

14:30 yeaaah, Teo in with a nice whole fish for the Lady V28


come an get it

14:33 she comes closer carefully, is chirping / begging softly, she sure is hungry,
Teo is kind of "playing" with her "come and take it", he turns his head to encourage her, when she comes closer he mantles his fish


it seems, Teo enjoys playing the role of a "macho"

[Hellem]

14:45 Teo is eating his fish, V28 is chirping

14:47 At last V28 took the halfeaten fish from Teo, Teo is cleaning his beak

14:50 Mating attempt
14:51 V28 swallowed the last piece, it was a small fish

[Liz01]

She swallows the fishtail during the mating attempt

[Hellem]

14:53 Teo brought a piece of bark
14:54 Mating attempt, Teo left, 14:57 he is back

14:58 Two mating attempts, V28 was aggressive against Teo , Teo left

15:03 He is back, 15:04 mating attempt

[kyfisher]

Did Teo just injure V28's right leg with his surprise mating attempt?

[Hellem]

15:08 Mating , Teo left
15:12; 15:20; 15:23; 15:27 Matings

15:33 V28 jumped to the cam stand, 15:41 she flew away from the cam stand

[balistar]

Did Teo just injure V28's right leg with his surprise mating attempt?

kyfisher, as you didn't mention a time, i only can guess what you mean.
If you mean this, i think she was only resting her right leg, i can't see any injury.
Does someone else see any injury?

15:12; 15:20; 15:23; 15:27 Matings

15:33 V28 jumped to the cam stand, 15:41 she flew away from the cam stand

Hellem, thank you so much. Things surprisingly and luckily are going on so fast.....
i can not keep up with the time, watching and taking pictures

[kyfisher]

Thank you balistar
Looked to me like he flew in very aggressive and caught her off balance and her next steps were cautious on the right leg. She was also very watchful for him after that. 14:50

I will try to be more careful about time stamp

[balistar]

15:08 Mating , Teo left
15:12; 15:20; 15:23; 15:27 Matings
.....

15:18 his crop is as empty as hers.....


...but Teo doesn't waste time, eagerly the essential work must be done first

15:20 successfully - she raises her tail right up to the sky


15:27 after even bringing in another stick, again successfully

[balistar]

Thank you balistar

Thank you, kyfisher, for describing. Maybe he got her "on the wrong leg", but i think nothing serious happened, luckily.
Time stamps will help us all, when things are happening so much in such a short time

Good afternoon, dear friends! Today I read your reports and comments as a romantic detective! Thank you all for the news!
I'm holding my breath waiting for the developments. 16:08. Teo with a good fish landed in the nest and immediately flew away. He's Horny. In the forest I heard the voice of the osprey. Like chick I'm sorry fish.
16:13. V28 flew to the nest, soon was the Teo with the fish. The fish will soon lose freshness, and Teo promises this V28 fish. Teo needs a guarantee that the next girl will not leave him.

[balistar]

15:32 Lady V28 is preening


15:33 she is up to the cam stand


15:50 Teo is still away, maybe now went fishing, matings also make hungry


16:06 yeaaah, Teo in with a big fish

[balistar]

Gavril

you were faster than me, and your pictures is better than mine

EDIT: oops, now you've changed your nice picture, and i changed it, too i'm sorry.

[Gavril]

balistar! I have a fear that this girl is too young for our Teo!
