near Roebel, eastern Germany
April, 2001
During a stay with Dieter and Anne
Roepke after the "Fischadler Tagung in April 2001 an Osprey nest has burnt down. Possibly due to a short cut because a branch had hit the power cable. It happened late in the evening. None of the Osprey was wounded, the huge flash seen by people living not far away |
|
The few remains of the nest | |
The next morning workers from e.dis Energie Nord AG built a new artificial nest | |
Dieter adds an important item to the nest: a grass sod
|
Finishing the nest |
A couple of hours later the Ospreys had taken over the nest again and began bringing new nest material |
With many thanks to Dieter Roepke and
