In the geat tit webcam nest all 8 nestlings fledged and left the nest on Saturday, July 15th. As first in the morning the oldest, 20 days old, left and as last the smallest nestling, up to 4 days younger than the others.
The departure of the great tit nestlings can be seen in the videos listed below (recorded by Urmas Lett, EENet):

Osprey Kalakotkas Pandion haliaetus
On Monday Ülo Väli ringed the osprey nestlings, commenting as he worked.
The voices of the adults are audible in the background but ospreys are not particularly sensitive to disturbance. Female Irma returned to the nest at 13.25
Beaver Kobras Castor fiber
After midnight when our sight only barely still distinguishes the forest outline against the background of sky the camera ”sees” even in colour as the video shows.

On leaving home we never know how many sparrows on the branch we will see or if we will hear the nightingale singing in the shrubs at all, but when we go along a forest path there is always the dream deep down that we might meet a bear. But to be honest, even with the growing population of bears in Estonia it is almost impossible to meet them. The reason is very simple, bears deliberately avoid contact with humans and the occasions are few when the bear has not detected the human; in such rare cases it is possible to meet them. So it happened to me.
Urmas Sellis and Ain Nurmla worked as experts should on the ringing of the storklets. The nest tree is not the easiest for this work. But the experience of Urmas with black storks and eagles goes back already for decades. Thanks!
