August, 12. Trip to Tauy river.
This year we decided to count all
nests along the Tauy river. So we started from the Talon village on a jet boat
and went along all stretches of the river. Fish inspection was giving us a
strange look, but after some small talk they became more friendly. The trip has
had intensive flying schedule. We counted two nests with 2 chicks, 5 nests with
1 chick and 4 occupied nests without chicks. There were many fishing camps
along the river and many beeches with many signs of human visitations.
Nevertheless the eagles are still present. No nest was found at the estuary.
Above: somehow the pair managed to
raise a chick in this nest.
