Today we have a visitor in Mati's nest again. He or she seems to like the nest.

Beautiful bird....
I think that while I was downloading the video, the osprey flew off the webcam.
15: 00. No, osprey is still on the webcam!

So, here are few pictures from earlier today.
First, MM at around 10:45 local time. A little camera-shy, maybe.
Then a second (male?) osprey scared her off.
No. 2 on the nest in an assertive posture.

I find it somewhat difficult for the males to distinguish them. We already had some young gentlemen here to visit. On vacation I will try to create a folder with pictures and date from this thread. So maybe I'll recognize better distinctive features and repeaters.
In the females there were 3 ladies so far. Is that correct or am I wrong?
However, MM seems to be the most likely new candidate for the nest.

I look forward to the portfolio of all participants in the competition for the nest! The lady MM is a clear contender for the nest. Anyway, it's obvious to me. Maybe because her easy to identify.....Polly wrote: ↑July 19th, 2018, 5:04 pm I find it somewhat difficult for the males to distinguish them. We already had some young gentlemen here to visit.

11: 52. MM jumped into a nest, said something to his invisible opponents, and flew away from the nest.

Amazingly, despite the drastic falloff in birdsong activity on all the Baltic webcams (quite normal for July), it seems like the Sedge Warbler (Acrocephalus schoenobaenus) still sings all night long and into early morning somewhere near this nest. Here's a short segment from this morning (nothing to see, just listen).
