Pikkukiljukotkat, Latvia 2011
Surulliset kuulumiset kahdelle pikkukiljukotkan pesälle lyhyessä ajassa..Teppana kirjoitti:Tuon tänne vielä Latvian foorumista englanninkielelle käännetyn Ugisin viestin Greitan ja Gintsin pikku pomariinan kohtalosta:
Dear Friends, our forumist Kaaposc translated for you all Dr.U. Bergmanis comment:
Good morning, watchers!
Unfortunately Grieta's and Gints' baby has died overnight. This morning I started to watch on-line at 05:30, the nest was already empty. I went to the forest immediately to look for baby, maybe he had fallen out of the nest. I found nothing under the nest, surroundings is clear. With high confidence I can say it was eaten by some predator - either marten or some large owl (Ural owl? Eagle-owls do not live there). Visibility let me follow events till 22:39 - Grieta was warming the baby, but looked around very worried, usually she sleeps with her head under her wing. She wasn't looking down, she was looking about the level of the nest, to different sides. It tells the predator was in the trees. In the morning Grieta was seen at 3:49, after a while she stood up, but baby was no more. It means drama happened overnight. Very sad, but it is out of our power to influence the processes programmed by the nature. I can only comfort you that Grieta, Gints and all the other animals know that not all of their offspring survive. Metra was unlucky with eggs, Grieta's baby passed away in the first days of it's life. Maybe this time some other baby got food and now takes a nap with his tummy full. Even big baby can simply fall out of the nest or to die while migrating to wintering sites. It's important that nesting places are intact, next spring birds will choose them again, there will be rutting and mating, the eggs will be laid and, if lucky, a new baby will be brought up. I know we all are very sad, but cheer up, let's watch Estonian eagles and wait for new spring!
With regards -
Ugis

Grieta kirjoittaa Latvian pikkukiljukotka foorumilla:
Yesterday to the German forests were transported 15 young LSE from Latvia
Including the eagle, which hatch in Metra's and Macho nest. Ugis says that the eagle grew up fine and is one of the strongest of all 15 eagles
