Info from Latvijas Dabas fonds (Season 2018):
The Osprey nest is located in Latvia in Kurzeme region. This breeding area is known since 1989. In 2007 the artificial nest was build in pine tree and in 2010 the first Osprey couple inhabited it. From 2012 to 2015 one to three chicks fledged. In 2016 the nest was occupied, but with no nestlings; in 2017 breeding was successful - two young birds fledged (the 3rd was taken from the nest by a White-tailed eagle).

In years, when breeding was successful, none of the adult birds was ringed, so the origin of the birds was unknown.

Osprey couple 2018 was named Tija (new female) and Teo (same male like in 2017) from members of Latvian forum.

Resident couple since 2019 are Vita and Teo

...........The raven was also intersting, calling for a mate

Shanta, you're welcome! Nice that you are back

In the YT chat they think, it was Teo. What do you think?
2018 Teo

2019 ?

[Polly]

For a moment his left eye was quite good to see but I could not see the typical.
I wanted to see what you were thinking. =)

It was Teo with the special eye, wasn't it?

[Hellem]

It seems to me that it's really Teo

[Shanta]

Shanta, you're welcome! Nice that you are back

Thank you!
Liz, I'm not sure ... something is strange for me. Unfortunately I could not watch a webcam for few months last year. Finally back at home this cam was down. So I've seen him only 2017 and I can't remember details ... must have a look in my old pics.

But however, it's so nice to see an Osprey

[lispet]

Probably the same raven was back at 15:41 for 2 minutes. Moved some sticks, called, jumped to the right branch and then could be heard very near.

[Deli]

Hi Liz, Hellem, Shanta, Lispet, Polly..
nice to see you here back again..
That's Teo last year:

And he does not have such a dark line around his eyes ...
I think it's a new osprey (male? ...)

Thank you Shanta

Vērotaja, YT Chat
In Durbe, we found the eagle with the ring K055 / H321 very many times. It was ringed in 2013 at Lake Liepaja. For this eagle, the ring differs by one digit in the previous direction K054 / H320
