Ikävä
oli lukea uutisista, että jotkut olivat pelotelleet Viikin merikotkia dronella.
Nyt on Helsingissäkin pakkanen. Merikotkilla on jo kuulemma munia. Kun hautova
emokin pelotellaan dronella pois pesästä, munat kylmettyvät pakkasessa.
Toisekseen, varikset käyvät nappaamassa merikotkien munat, jos ne jättävät
pesän hetkeksikään. Merikotkien pahin vihollinen on ihminen.

Tämän
postauksen kuvat otin maanantaina Vanhankaupunginkoskella ja
Vanhankaupunginlahden suojelualueella. Keskelle suojelualuetta on tehty
lapsille kiva leikkipaikka.

Katkenneessa
oksassa kasvaa valkoinen, kiintoisan näköinen sieni.

I was sorry to
read news that some had been intimidating the Helsinki White-tailed eagles with
drone (I wrote about these eagles in my last post). The White-tailed eagles
have already eggs. Now there is a frost in Helsinki. When the eagles are intimidated
by a drone from the nest, the eggs will be destroyed in freezing temperature. Secondly, the
Crows will take the eggs of eagles, if eagles leave the nest. The worst enemy
of Eagles is man. Right now the eagles are back in their nest.
These photos I shot in Monday in the conservation area
of Vanhankaupunginlahti and in the area of rapids.
Linking to Saturday's Critters
What a beautiful animal and nature world you have. These are great shots!
VastaaPoistaHave a good weekend, Elke
Hello Anu, The swan is beautiful and I love seeing the Goosanders. Lovely series of photos. I wish the person with the drone would be caught, no one should harass the eagle or any bird on their nest. Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Happy Saturday, enjoy your weekend. PS, thank you for visiting and commenting on my blog.
VastaaPoistaHello Anu!
VastaaPoistaBad people with naughty intention are everywhere in the world! The swan is beautiful! Nice series of photos!
Enjoy your weekend!
What beautiful photos. The conservation area looks like a great place to explore and enjoy nature and the wildlife.
VastaaPoistaHave a wonderful day.
That's bad news about drones Anu. You don't say if the disturbance is aimed at the eagles because they are not welcome by some or if it photography or just ignorance> Whatever it is very bad and I hope the Finnish authorities can make it stop.
VastaaPoistaI really hope the authorities can fine the culprits, confiscate their drones, ban them from ever having one again, and impose serious fines. What idiots.
VastaaPoistaKiva leikkipaikka. Valkoinen "karva" puussa, näyttäisi olevan hiusjäätä;-)
VastaaPoistaHei Anne! Kiitos tuhannesti tästä tiedosta. En muista koskaan ennen nähneeni hiusjäätä. Googletin heti hiusjään. Mielenkiintoinen ilmiö.
PoistaThose drones are horrid. Ignorant people around the world are harassing wildlife.
VastaaPoistaI love your birds. We have mergansers, too. Not now, though. We're pretty frozen in...
What a shame about the drones!!
VastaaPoistaBeautiful series of photos.
VastaaPoistaPeople are destroying the whole world, the drones are terrible.
Best regards, Irma
sorry to hear of the eagles. Can people never learn :( Ducks are starting to arrive where I lvie too, And yesterday I saw gulls.
VastaaPoistaWhat you thing is white mushroom is a kind of frost. It´s called Hairice or in swedish "håris" It comes out of wet old branches when it is around zero deg. Nice shot!
Hello. Thank you for letting me know about hairice. I have not seen it before. Also Anne told in her comment, that it is hairice. Hairice is an interesting natural phenomenon.
PoistaHave a nice week ahead!
Lovely series of images and yes 'man is the enemy' ~ Nature has a way of taking care of its own ~
VastaaPoistaHappy Moments to You,

That is so very sad about the sea eagles ... the drone operator should be caught and punished somehow, but I suppose that will not happen. I don’t understand how people can behave like that, but such disrespect for nature happens here too. .... your winter pictures are beautiful.....
VastaaPoistaDrones are used by some people for the wrong purposes.
VastaaPoistaHello all!
VastaaPoistaThank you so much for your comments.
Kiitos kaikille kommenteista!
