S/he's also working on the bowl. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/22e17de419872744feab7d3ce8c57aa670226901edd51b80f773d8938fa6c166.png
Nest renovation in August? I can't tell if it's Helju, Kalju, or a visitor eagle. I read on the forum that two GEs were here for three days in August and were working on the nest. Strange… https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/571c3229d0288d4c9dd566c148e2544d30ceba507a92866aaaa27680984362d5.png

The Eurasian hobby (Falco subbuteo), or just hobby, is a small, slim falcon. It belongs to a group of similar falcons often considered a subgenus of Falco. https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/0235b1b3a58b5e2e042768e0fced7691c46f0610050cc0717473d2bcfdc3302e.png

5/14 Nice surprise! Helju (with branch)… https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/ffcd979b0d06109cc2e7a7c25e18c7ccc0acf3e1fdcd2a0b0d8738252f74f2da.png

S/he was banded and fitted with a transmitter at around 63 days of age (the exact hatching date was unknown). However, the camera stopped working at that time, so we were unable to track Äike’s further development.
But now, we have great news! Äike migrated over the winter and transmitted data from Poland on January 8.
On Februar 16, Äike was near Gublawki/Poland https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/bc6cff1c6331af3a752213bcfd16b99ce4683bbf2504bc02d6cc31aacc372e86.png
And on May 11 Äike is back home in Estonia! So good to know Äike is doing fine!💖 https://uploads.disquscdn.com/images/52138a7eaf6ad45fa84f3b00fc65507ecae71c5a676f6a5116b5c29e92bae5ba.png

]]> By: One https://naturechat.org/golden-eagle-cam-in-estonia/comment-page-11/#comment-237371 Fri, 01 May 2026 04:47:09 +0000 https://naturechat.org/?page_id=37666#comment-237371 On the evening of April 27, the stream ended and has been down ever since. Perhaps this was intentional, since there hasn't been any significant activity in this nest lately. Hopefully we'll see this nest again next season. Helju and Kalju, we're waiting for you! 🦅💞🦅
