This morning at six o’clock

 

White-tailed eagle         Merikotkas       Haliaeëtus albicilla

 

… and not for the first time during the last month. Still the same adult, ringed with the number  E301 and with a nice white tail.

In due time we will find out whom we have to do with.

The egg and both storks…

 

Black stork          Must-toonekurg       Ciconia nigra

 

The night was of course cold, in the nest forest there may have been at least a couple of degrees of frost but in the morning dusk the egg was really there.

The black stork nest camera works, the birds are in place and viewers are plentiful.

LK forum is where you can get an overview of what has happened in the nest this year as well as in previous years. Different observers have described their observations, and added pictures and videos there.

The heron camera starts its third season. We follow the activities in Estonia’s largest heron colony in Lääne County where last season nearly 490 pairs of grey herons and 250 pairs of great egrets were nesting. Only grey herons were nesting in the colony from the start in the 1990’ies; the great egrets did not move in until 2015.
