Young Ospreys

Estonia - looduskalender.ee

It's this awkward time when the young birds have to take the big decision to abandon their nest and start hunting by their own...Mother has already left and this afternoon was at Black Sea. Father still delivers fish...but they are not enough for all three young Ospreys. They fight every time father delivers the fish...they call desperatelly...Maybe tomorrow he won't come back ...I wonder if they have already tried to hunt...they were absent from the nest for long time during the day...but maybe they were sitting at a nearby branch ...I wish we could follow them...
