Road sign  "Frogs on road"

The spring evenings become warmer and the migration of frogs has already started. Take part in the community actions!

It is easy to participate and there are tasks for everyone’s strength, young or old. On taking part  it is also important to take care of your own safety!

Actions are organised in Tallinn, Tartu and Viljandi County. Read more about the organisation: LINK

Wear warm clothes, have boots on.

Equipment for carrying out the work is mostly available  in place.

Drivers, if possible please avoid late night driving on the road stretches involved in the actions.

We are grateful for all kinds of help!

Hopefully the nest-building will soon gain speed. We will introduce the starlings’ mode of life as the breeding period proceeds. The LK forum keeps an observant eye on what is going on.

Klaara incubating this morning

 

Tawny owl         Kodukakk        Strix aluco

 

Let us look back in time - Klaara laid the eggs on March 15, 18, 21, and 24. It is common among tawny owls that the eggs are laid at intervals of a few days.

When the first egg has been laid the female also starts incubating. Until the second egg we saw Klaara quite often moving outside in the evenings – after all she may well have needed to meet Klaus and socialize.

We introduce a new nature camera from an Estonian grey heron nest colony located in Lääne County. It is probably the largest heron colony in Estonia now, nearly 300 pairs nest there. In total 2000-2500 pairs nest in Estonia.
