Portrait of young world citizen on Friday

Grey seal; Gray seal     Hallhüljes        Halichoerus grypus

Thanks to Simmo who went by kayak to count the seal pups the web camera was also adjusted and other necessary jobs got done – it is more uncomfortable for white-tailed eagles to sit on the camera now!

The Baltic-facing side of Saaremaa is free of ice and the pupping of grey seals is in its early stage. Thirteen females have given birth, all young are alive and healthy.

By tomorrow weather will again be stormy. On Friday air temperature was +2, water +0,3 and the water level -30 centimetres.

Interesting times are ahead, we will try to follow events closely.
