Clearly the Estonian unringed female has won the day!
Cirrus, maybe the other two were just passing through. All seems fine with this pairing. Very windy there today.
A thing of beauty is a joy forever.
Good news re Bassenthwaite.
just checked the SAKER nest at BUDAPEST-- at least two young .. and the temperature is 30-4 cent
Got YouTube to trim the end of a nearly-empty video for the sake of a lovely kalakotkas tail - it's at 50 seconds, sorry couldn't be more accurate but I was editing LG and overloaded.
Female was definitely receptive!
I am not yet confident of male and female ID, but I gather that the female who has settled is unringed.
Here is a tail-end being eaten and a mating:

Thank you Scylla for those lovelly captures. It will be very interesting to watch how this nest unfolds,It is so clear and we really have front row seats. The wind seems to have died down,it looked earlier that the forest in the background was moving and not the nest.
I think you can see the injury to the back of the right leg in this short clip:
The activity on this nest is running rings around me, and we don't want this thread taken over by kalakotkas, do we?

Having said that, lol, I must post this vid of Madis bringing soft furnishings and nestorising:
And a still of someone scooting by (sorry if it's duplicated, am so confuuuuused!):
