Let us look back in time and make a brief recapitulation of events in female Suvi and male Sulev’s nest up to now.

Capercaillie       Metsis or  mõtus      Tetrao urogallus

 

 

The sun in southern Estonia rises already at a quarter to six. A couple of hours before sunrise the cocks start to call, but in the trees where they spent the night.

When the hens arrive to the lek area the first cock lands on the ground and soon also the other participants in the lek.

The capercaillie camera is installed at a capercaillie lek site in Võrumaa that has been known already for a long time. During monitoring up to five cocks have been counted there. With the aid of the camera we can confirm this or be more exact. The camera however is in one definite place, from where you cannot see far and the direction of the sound cannot be determined from the camera. So the camera does not really replace monitoring but hopefully will complement it

Early morning in the stork nest.

We waited and hoped to see a third egg in the nest in the morning – and so it was.

Female Kati has regularly laid an egg every two days, on April 14, 18 and 20.
