Osprey Kalakotkas Pandion haliaetus
The young ospreys are two and a half month old by now.
So loudly the food begging goes about. Since last week male Ivo is left as the food provider for the young ones, but he copes very well with the fishing.

On going to check the trail cameras I met a roe deer family on a freshly cleared winter rapeseed field. It seems to be a fawn and its mother who have also passed the trail camera in the forest. The fawn trusts the adult in everything. The young deer-to-be noticed me but only stopped to observe. When decisions have to be made then the mother decides. The doe however did not notice me and so they nibbled peacefully on at the field verge.
