14:30 yeaaah, Teo in with a nice whole fish for the Lady V28 :2thumbsup:
Image

come an get it :laugh:

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
Image

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

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? :puzzled:

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 :blush:

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 :D

Good afternoon, dear friends! :hi: Today I read your reports and comments as a romantic detective! Thank you all for the news! :thumbs:
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.
