Lesser spotted eagle pair Eha & Koit are birds who go on with their nest life quietly and peacefully. On May 3 the first egg was laid in the nest; the female begins incubating at the same time. Because of this the chicks hatch at different dates, the incubation lasts 37-42 days, thus the hatching of the chicks comes in June. Male Koit must take care of providing food – he is a little smaller and with browner plumage. The spotted eagles have no cause to grumble about the frog year.

The nest life of the beautiful black storks proceeds quietly and unobtrusively. In the news you can see how the five eggs of Tiit and Tiina appeared in the nest:

The incubation, carried out alternately, lasts nearly five weeks, thus we may expect noteworthy events in the stork nest in the last days of May.
