Greater spotted eagle          Suur-konnakotkas          Clanga clanga

Regardless of the number of eggs in the nest (sometimes they are even three) only one chick fledges (the fledging of two nestlings has been noted only once in Estonia). A pity but cainism is encoded in the life of greater spotted eagles.

The doings of the Ura beavers brought them into camera view already a minute past midnight. Shortly before three o’clock when the forest birds already woke up and started singing the beavers had been swimming, alone or two together, past the camera exactly 21 times –an active night. 

The water level had suddenly decreased in the pond and it can be  supposed that they worried about the condition of the dam about 50 meters away. During the next two hours the beavers came in camera view only five times so they were probably engaged in the dam construction. From five o’clock in the morning they were no longer to be seen, probably they were settling down to the day’s sleep …

Male Ivo must be praised

Osprey          Kalakotkas            Pandion haliaetus 

In the Kalakotkas 2 camera nest in Tartumaa the eagle chicks have become a week on average. The first were hatched on June 4 and 5 and the smallest among the chicks on June 7.

In the forum the regular viewers praise male Ivo (to the left in the photo and ringed) compared to male Marko from the Võrumaa nest. The daily catch of fish is 6:5 to the advantage of Ivo.
