View from Wednesday morning of white-tailed eagle nest

For the symbols of Estonian primeval nature, the white-tailed eagles and golden eagles and the owls, the breeding period has started and the birds sit on eggs in the nests. The Environmental Board calls on all landowners, forest managers, hunters and all others who move in nature to support the peace during the breeding time of birds that are rare and very sensitive to environmental changes.

Klaara already knows that Klaus will bring something edible to the nest (we cannot hear those sounds).

In the beginning of the video the calls of Klaara and the more masculine “approval” from male Klaus - when his beak is free from the food – can be clearly seen and heard. If the web camera is open in the background we can often have an idea in advance of the doings of the tawny owls.

Tawny owl    Kodukakk      Strix aluco

 

At the evening flight outside, at seven o’clock, there was a third egg in the nest hollow. Very  rarely five eggs are found in a tawny owl clutch (literature indicates a possibility of up to eight eggs), more often there are three eggs here: round, white ones, the size of a ping-pong ball.
