Birthday kids

Black stork     Must-toonekurg         Ciconia nigra

Almost a week ago our stork chicks got rings on their legs as well as transmitters as light-weight backpacks on their backs. The birdmen get more information about the movements of the young birds before their breeding period arrives.

All operations were carried out simultaneously in order to disturb nest life as little as possible and everything passed successfully.

Storklets being brought back to nest

Black stork         Must-toonekurg         Ciconia nigra

 

Today the storklets got transmitters on their backs and rings on their legs. Urmas Sellis together with other bird people undertook the task and not in the nest but under it – the procedure took some time. In daytime the adults are hunting for food and there is a smaller risk for the birdmen to ”get caught” by the adults.

A white-tailed eagle uses the camera stand for sitting on

Four days ago,in early morning, the camera turned on for a moment but went off as soon. The weather in the weekend was stormy but the Internet connection worked.

Perhaps there will be some time in the weekend when the weather allows the reason to be found and when we know the reason we will see what and how to handle it further

rMother Tiiu brings rodent to nest and nobody needs to assist the eaglet at eating any longer

While the month-old eaglet still had to be coddled by the mother then a strong development towards independence has taken place during the last week.
