Screenshots from Sääksilive Osprey nest #4. Contain views of fish prey.
Mom Nuppu feeding the chicks, which are lined up in age order. All three ate well at this meal. Also N1 and N2's second plumages are coming in quickly, now both have fully dark back of the head.
And more for N3. Who is a week old today, by the way.
Dad Nemo's turn to feed the chicks, he's getting the hang of it. Still doesn't lean very close, though, and though N1 and N2 managed to grab bites, N3 not so much.
Neighbor visit. There seems to be a wagtail pair nesting under the osprey nest this year, too.
Frustrated N3 picks a fight with N1. Didn't get much out of it though, in terms of either food or fight.
Nuppu soon takes over the fish, and with the older siblings already pretty full, N3 has little competition for the rest of the feeding.
Later another private feeding for N3 while siblings nap. Full crops for all.
