13:49:44 food delivery to nest - I think Andris (?)

"Vērotaja: ​Ērglis vecāks 100% izskatās pēc Annas, taču astes spalvām ir gaiši gali!
Vērotaja: Vērotaja
​Vienīgais, kas runā par labu Andrim, tā ir balss. Tādā aizsmakušā balsī sauc tikai Andris. Tātad aste un balss = Andris. Kopējā vizuālā uztvere = Anna
Vērotaja: Bikses nav objektīvas, tās var mainīties. Annai nebija balti spalvu gali, Andrim bija."
and more - she is also not sure

Grinč chirping and fly around the nest (13:50:30 I saw him "under" the nest and also later), adult eagle call for him (strange "hoarse" sound = "come!" )

13:51:03 must be very nearby
13:51:24 I hear also wing-flapping
13:51:50 another circle

[Solo]

13:53:19 Grinč in nest
- arrived from right side - she want only vole, not the parent eagle - so chased him/her away as always
Grinč still chirping - unhappy , adult eagle must be nearby ... and at 13:57:13 arrived this eagle to left branch (preening), so near to our Grinč - she want eating, but ...

13:58:43 adult eagle flew away
13:58:51 Grinč ate her vole (as big: in pieces and after meal cleaned her beak on the twigs )

14:07:48 our eaglet jumped to lower branch (left side)

Solo thank you very much

It was a delivery by Anna. She also brought a spruce twig. 'Poor Grincs
Andris never stays in the nest that long, and he does not bring branches.

14:21 Another vole delivery by Anna

[Liz01]

16:53 A delivery outside the nest without pictures. I only heard it.

20:56 Grincs is still calling near the nest. I saw and heard no another delivery.

Good Morning Solo and all

Grincs is calling already before sunrise.
8:20 It sounds like a food delivery.

She was not on the nest.

8:45 She is still calling near. Parent is softly calling too.
There will be a feeding.. outside the nest.
