Estonian Osprey Nest (Ivo & Iiris) 2020

[Summi]

At first Ivo took away the remaining fish so that it wouldn't attract uninvited guests and to have some bites himself too. Then he brought back what was left. Well done. Should he start now bringing fish a bit more often, we could call him a great fisherman again as in previous years.

Given the time difference of one hour (8:35 hrs. and 9:35 hrs.), is this the 2nd fish this morning that Iris feeds to the chick?

As of 10:04 hrs.: Another feeding - one can't see much as Iris is standing with her back to the camera.

[Summi]

@Rita, 08:35 it was the first fish that Iiris fed to the chick, 08:47 Ivo took the remaining fish and 09:35 brought back what was left from this fish.

Looks like the livestream stopped at 10:52 camtime.
Hope it's not a big problem

5:10 PM Feeding time

[Summi]

Jenny, thank you. Iiris is feeding the fish Ivo brought at 17:02.

Seira, fish pillow is the dream of every osprey.

[Summi]

Ivo was sitting on the dead tree for a long time, at 20:21 he came on the nest to check and rearrange the furniture and left.
Iiris had shortly before that finished eating the 17:02 fish tail. Hopefully at the moment Ivo is catching a juicy fish for supper.

9:59 PM Iiris sees a strange Osprey, probably the same one who always wants to see her. Ivo is immediately on hand to protect the nest. After the strange Osprey disappears in the woods, Ivo leaves the nest too.

Ivo leaves too

21:58:53 Iiris mildly looking at Ivo as if saying Darling, I can handle the situation on the nest, please bring us the late night fish!

An hour later, 22:58 - still no fish.

[mogga]

Oh, what do I see...



Thanks olgapyat for the great video!

Hello Listerby and zuza!

[Summi]

mogga, great to see you again and thank you for this picture.

23:28 now it's too late for the supper fish, the chick and Iiris have to get to sleep with empty stomach in the vicinity of the fish ponds.

11:47 PM Hi Summi, no fish from Ivo. Iiris tried to get some sleep, but I guess the little one is still very active. Hopefully Ivo comes early in the morning to bring some fish.

[Sunshine]

Thank you everyone, for the very nice pics and reports!

Oh, so only 2 fish from Ivo within 24 hours (at 08:35 a.m. and 17.02 p.m.) - the first one later taken away and partially eaten Ivo, and the second one a half-fish only... So, in total, one could say, only one full fish in total.

That is not much at all.

The second fish of the day, which Ivo brought at 17:02, looked like this (Ivo had eaten himself at least a half):

[zuza]
