The nest we are watching is located in Kurzeme. According to the information available to Aigars Kalvānas, it has been known since 2004. The nest is made in the branch of a bent old pine tree. From 2007 to 2023, the nest has been inhabited every year, and only in 2007, 2010, and 2019, nesting in it was not successful. In other years, 1-3 young ospreys left the nest. In 2023, the male and female were without rings, so we do not know the origin of these birds.
The camera system was created by Jānis Ķuze and Jānis Rudzītis.

What a mean sibling. Thank goodness the fish was big enough for the elder to gorge on and for the younger to get a meal.
