Dunedin male:
Thanks, scylla, I missed yesterday's fish delivery by Madis (so many webcams, so little time!!)
Piret did eat today's fish on the nest. I thought Madis was mantling because she was aggressive towards him and comes over as being super-confident. I can't remember Odin ever doing it, but don't watch that cam much because of it's quality and noise.
A thing of beauty is a joy forever.
Speaking of great views, 2 ospreys on the webcam at Glacier National Park, Montana:
And another screenshot, cropped this time:
Another fish being eaten by Piret on the nest, but not sure if it was given by Madis or she brought it herself.
3 different female ospreys on the Estonia nest :

Thanks Alan. ' There may be trouble ahead ' !!
Have just found Estonia nest. Many thanks to all for the info. What amazing clarity.Wish we had same for EJ and Odin, on second thoughts maybe not in this terrible weather. I find it hard to watch at present. Just wish the rain would go away.

A love quadrangle then!
Thanks Scylla and Alan for the video clip and photos. The sound is excellent from the Estonia nest isn't it? So clear.
Well, ALAN, that's a turn-up for the osprey books :o I hadn't noticed any difference except in the females' reactions to mating attempts, and sometimes the difference between male and female wasn't quite as obvious, it crossed my mind. But I never suspected they were different birds!
