Male LSE was back only short, they moved a bit sticks, bowing (courtship behaviour)
Female left the nest at 17:14







Again her hanging wing.

Pictures only, as stream was so bad at this time that one can´t make a video

5:35 Eagle arrived. It lay in the nest bowl.
Now at 6:02 it is still there.

[Marfo]

When I opened the cam at 9:10 an Eagle was on the nest. It had been there for a while and both were there at 9:01.
9:14 it flew to the branch in the background.

By the way, the stream is uninterupted, maybe because there is no wind.

9:40 still on the branch.
9:48 it flew away, it had been calling a lot while it sat on the branch.

12:12 the wind is increasing and the stream is interrupted again. You would think there is a faulty cable or plug.

10:24 The female comes and eats the mouse in a second or 2.

10:25 Both Eagles on the nest.

By the way, I found out that the scroll back function doesn't work very well with the latest Safari (Os x 10.12). But it works with Firefox on Mac.

[Marfo]

11:28 Eagle calls and flies to the branch in the background, he flies away soon after. For the last hour, since they left the nest, Eagle calls are heard regularly in the neighbourhood.

Wonderful news! I keep my fingers crossed that this is going to be a full season, not like the previous ones!

[Marfo]

When I opened the cam early this morning to check if the cam worked again. I saw the female who stood up in the nest bowl and there was an egg!
I see I wasn't mistaken, others have seen it too. What a surprise.
Let's hope the stream will be steady when the wind blows.
