Latvian Osprey nest 2019-2023

22:00:45 Vita runs backwards to the edge of the nest.
She flaps her wings briefly. Did she have to balance?
22:01:30 and back to the nest.

Good night!

Good morning!

05:44 Vita leaves the nest for a moment, Teo arrives with a fine fish. Vita comes back and takes the fish and leaves.

@lispet
Yes, Vita is leaving the nest in a hurry. I wondered why is she doing this?
She looked scared to me but it was Teo approaching the nest. With breakfast!
Vita comes right back ... first on the camera then into the nest.



She pulls the fish out of Teo's claws, stands with it on the edge of the nest for a while and leaves the nest.

I am very happy ... these remains of Teo's feathers are gone today.

[Polly]

06:42 Vita returns with the remains of the fish.
Teo steals a bite first, then the rest of it.







Vita shares without objection.

Sometimes it looks like it takes time to loosen their claws to release something.
As if a rigidity makes them clamp.

[Polly]

Teo starts to eat but Vita pushes - she wants the egg.





06:44 Teo leaves the nest - with fish.

Terrible weather again ...

[Polly]

07:28 Vita seems nervous.



Teo is approaching.
Mating - my opinion would not be successful.

I am curious whether Vita will lay another egg.
I see the camera very delayed. I don't know the current situation yet.

Please help to report. In the long run I can't do it alone here.

[Polly]

13:49 It makes me nervous when Vita trembles slightly and raises her head feathers ...





13:56 But the second egg?
Vita is breathing heavily ... her body is working.

[Polly]

Yess!




14: 01: 04/05 While Vita was still sitting there were alarm calls from outside.
14:01:15 Vita leaves the nest with an alarm call and we see the second egg.

[lispet]

Great news! Such a beautiful egg.

[Polly]

15:32 Teo approaching.


It first flutters while standing before landing on the nest beach. He stops there for the time being ... pulls in his leg.



Then Vita gets up and he comes to the eggs.
Teo is seeing the second egg for the first time, isn't it?

[Polly]

Vita ready to leave the nest


A daring-looking Teo stays in the nest.



I finish here for today.

[lispet]

17:42-17:49
Something is happening around the nest, Vita looks around alert.
She leaves the nest twice for some minutes.

[lispet]

19:15 Vita is very restless. Up again, flapping wings like scaring someone away.



19:25 Teo with fish. Vita leaves with it.

Good morning!
05:22 What a frosty morning!

[lispet]

07:14 Vita arrived with a big stick. She places it onto Teo :)

[lispet]

08:10
Now Teo brings an even bigger branch and places it onto Vita :)

[lispet]

10:18
A beautiful fish for Vita
