  • 25 /7/ 2021 Statement from Satakunta Osprey project about Ossi & Alma's two relocated chicks:
    Many have asked about the two babies of Ossi and Alma moved to the second nest as a result of the unfortunate events on Midsummer Eve. The chicks were ringed and investigated during the move.
    The inspector of the nest visited the scene and found that one of the chicks had passed away. It was surprising that the deceased baby was the one who survived the raven attack with seemingly minor injuries. The cause of death of the baby was no longer able to be concluded at that point. The relocated chick has a yellow ring SRS, which was added during the relocation. On Thursday 22.7 SRS was photographed in flight near the nest, so this story seems to have a happy ending.
    Midsummer's Eve events showed once again that anything can happen at the nests approach something you can't possibly prepare for. Hopefully Ossi will find a good partner for next year. A good sign is that Ossi has not abandoned his nest place due to setbacks, but has lived there in the last few days. And best of all, we've also seen females with Ossi on the nest. Next spring we'll see how the story continues in Ossi's nesting swamp.
    The presence of ravens at Ossi's nesting swamp has also sparked discussion. However, they have been living in the same areas for a long time and they haven't been more harmful to the weather. The weathers have been nesting in that nest continuously since 2005; the first failure came only the other year as a result of a visit tby a goshawk and the second setback this year because of the raven.
    saaksilive.fi/...
    Note: this is a remote nest cam livestream, no camera operators are nearby. Heartbreaking tragedy for Alma and Ossi and their three chicks - around 10.45 today Alma is attacked on the nest by a raven, she tries to fight it off to protect her chicks and is injured. The raven returns, attacks first one chick then a second, then returns to attacking the first one and wounds it fatally before being forced away by Ossi. Disturbance is seen in the distance in the trees in front of the nest, nest cam operator zooms in and an Osprey can just be seen trying to fly but not succeeding. Then a fox comes along, a fight ensues before the fox naturally wins and is seen carrying Alma off. All the while heartbreaking cries are heard which must be Ossi, witness to the tragedy but unable to do anything to save his mate.
    It seems Alma must have injured herself flying after the raven to protect her chicks - it's thought perhaps she caught her wing on a tree in the forest, was unable to fly, landed on the ground and was then vulnerable to attack by the raven. The raven had to fight her for a long time before it was satisfied she wasn't coming after him and so was able to return to the nest and attack the chicks, killing one and wounding another before Ossi came screaming in to force it off the nest.
    Cam operator then pulls back and the two surviving chicks, one injured, are seen next to the body of their sibling. What will happen to them now? Will the injured one survive, will the raven return, Ossi be able to look after them on his own? Just heartbreaking but sadly, this is what happens in nature. The darker side of nest cam watching..
    25/6/2021 Statement from Satakunta Osprey Project:
    The progress of nesting became virtually impossible after Alma's death. Such small chicks cannot be flown by an Osprey male alone, i.e. fed, defended and protected from heat. Numerous experts were consulted on the follow-up and it was finally concluded that the only option for the larger chicks is in another nest.

    The nest is located in the Satakunta region in Western Finland. Ospreys have nested there since 2005. The male Osprey, Ossi, has inhabited the nest since 2014. He has a ring on his right leg and according to the ringing data he hatched in Karkku, Sastamala in 2009. Alma, the female, doesn’t have a ring and therefore her age and hatching location are unknown.
    In 2019 Alma and Ossi’s nesting failed due to a Goshawk attacking the nestlings. Nevertheless, the pair returned the following year and raised three fledglings. Since 2017 Alma and Ossi have raised a total of eight fledglings.

We don't know if there were other ravens around and he was dealing with them in the air out of camera view, but there were a lot of frantic alarm calls before he arrived at the nest. It's usually a male's job to fight off in the air and the female's to defend the nest.

      The only problem with that theory in this case MH, is that the Raven would have had to been able to take the Osprey down, which is unlikely. I think it's more likely that she collided with a branch or something, and the fox happened to be in the right place, at the right time. Osprey aren't the most nimble pilots in wooded situations, and have almost a 6 ft wingspan. Ravens on the other hand, are acrobats, with almost half the wingspan. A little like comparing a bomber with a fighter. I wish she had simply stayed on the nest and waited for backup!

    Common Ravens are EVERY bit a predator as they are a scavengers folks. I've been in the avian field now for the better part of 30yrs. Having "hands on" experience with everything from Warblers to Birds of Prey. And Corvids which comprise of the following; Ravens, Crows, Rooks, Magpies, Jackdaws, Jays, & Nutcrackers are some of my favorite family/class of birds i've worked with. Their sheer intelligence in terms of puzzle solving and learning human speech is unparalleled. Ravens are no small birds at 25in with a 4-4.5ft wingspan weighing in around 2.5lbs. I've seen them kill puffins, small ducks, rats, squirrels, and it's not with the use of their claws/talons since they aren't sharp enough too do the job a bird of prey can. It's with their VERY strong hooked beaks. Which are perfect for ripping and tearing into flesh. It's also the reason why A LOT of Birds of Prey give them the respect they command. As they can soar and tumble through the air just as good as any bird of prey can. Notice this mother osprey is doing her best too drive off the raven. But the raven can weave and dodge her attacks like they were two fighter jets in an aerial dogfight. These poor osprey chicks didn't stand a chance from the get go. It's sad too see and i've witnessed similar kills from ravens myself. But it is the cycle of life and that raven has young too feed also.

    • @GeemeffGeemeff
      @GeemeffGeemeff  Год назад +2

      Very well said. Corvids are extremely clever, agile, strong and opportunistic which makes them formidable predators. The Osprey chicks had no chance once their mother was lured away. All part of living a wild free life even if sad for us nest cam watchers to witness.

    Update 20.30 UK time: The chicks are being relocated to a nest without a camera.
    Update 17.15 UK time: The livestream has been taken down while the two chicks are being removed and taken for safe relocation. The chick that was killed was the youngest chick, mods say nest 3 is not suitable for these two older chicks because of the age difference. Will update as soon as info received from the mods. If there is any good news, it's that Ossi returned later at 18.15 (cam time) with fish, one chick tucked in enthusiastically and even the injured chick had a nibble: ruclips.net/video/iPyTgJd0Tyc/видео.html

      No, Ossi isn't involved - if a single parent could both catch enough fish and protect the chicks, they would have been left alone.

    People have to understand that while this is heart breaking too watch. It's also a part of nature. "Survival of the fittest" as the old saying goes. Corvids which comprise of; Ravens, Crows, Jackdaws, Rooks, Magpies, Jays, & Nutcrackers ARE predatory birds when need be. Where they lack the talons of a bird of prey they make up for TEN FOLD in there sheer beak power alone. Raven's have VERY sharp and strong beaks with a slightly hooked tip that is made for tearing flesh. In my 30yrs in the avian field dealing "hands on" with everything from Warblers to Birds of Prey. I have witnessed while out in the field Ravens killing; puffins, rabbits, pigeons, rats, etc...They are massive birds at 24-27in with a 4-4.5ft wingspan weighing in around 2.5lbs. They also get A LOT of respect from raptors such as hawks and eagles. Because they are there "aerial equivalent" in terms of flying. As a matter of fact they often pick "dog fights" with hawk and eagles just for the sheer delight of it. And can VERY easily keep pace with them when doing so. They can soar, tumble, and roll in flight just as well as any bird of prey. They are also HIGHLY intelligent birds capable of human speech as good as any parrot. And can figure out complex puzzles with ease. They form extremely strong family bonds with there partners and young. So they are definitely a bird that commands respect. They hold a special place for me of all the birds i've worked with. And never cease to amaze me with there intelligence and ingenuity. The same goes for there smaller crow cousins.

Just when the eagle thinks it can turn over in flight and expose it's talons the ravens know this and dodge them perfectly. Not saying a golden eagle couldn't kill a raven as they could very easily. But the ravens are simply doing one of two things. Having fun harassing the raptor or driving it away from their own young. Often at carrion kills i see them pulling hawks and eagles tail feathers too move them. It's a "cat and mouse" game between the two of them. Until usually the raptor gets fed up and leaves.

With each tear of their feathers and flesh it looked up with a big evil grin as if it were saying…”I got your chicks anyway, haha” After injuring the 2nd poor baby , it grabbed a big feather and took off back into the woods where Alma lay helpless trying to finish her off but sadly it was a Fox that did her in.

The mom was with her 3 kids when the raven appeared, she flew off to fight the dam bird but in the back you can see her fall to the ground in the trees with the raven alive and well, it immediately flew to the nest and killed at least 1 chick before being scared off by a resident male. It’s hard to see but in the back, you can see a fox appearing and killing the mom while she was down, the surviving chicks were relocated somewhere else.

    Ravens have been getting all sorts of good press on this site, with videos of their intelligence and their ability to relate to human videographers. This reminds me that, despite the positive coverage, animals do what animals do. They all deserve our attention and protection, but I feel a little silly now for getting drawn in by those videos attributing human traits to birds.

    • @GeemeffGeemeff
      @GeemeffGeemeff  2 года назад +4

      Anthropomorphism is always a danger when dealing with or relating to animals. But it can be very hard to avoid, especially when animals exhibit traits we recognise such as appearing to show grief, or humour, for example. My dog once accidentally bit my hand when we were playing tug, I shifted my hand on the rope toy just as he went to grab it and his teeth sank right in, lots of blood, hurt like mad, I screamed. I went to disinfect and bandage my hand, it wasn't a bad wound, but he wouldn't leave me alone. He was glued to my side like velcro, tail down, looking a picture of misery. He kept nudging me and wagging his tail slightly, whining softly, until I finished cleaning up and told him it was ok. For the rest of that day he kept coming over and rubbing against me. The only way I can possibly interpret that is to say he knew he'd made an error, was really sorry, and was concerned for me. Granted, he was my pet and lived in my house, but there are many instances of wild animals behaving in a way we would recognise - think of elephants visiting the remains of one of their herd, and gently picking up and replacing the bones.

      I think you're more foolish for thinking these aren't human traits. Chimps are one of the most needlessly violent creatures on the planet. We're not some special enlightened beings. Literally the only thing between a somewhat safe society and total mad max is fear. Their fear of being caged or worse outweighs their chimp impulses, most of the time.

  • @maryll3158
    @maryll3158 3 года назад +66

    Thanks so much for sharing the video. This is an incredibly rare and tragic scene that leaves many unanswered questions. Namely, it's curious to imagine what events could have led up to this conflict and fateful moment for the Osprey family. Ravens are extremely intelligent corvids, more so than any other bird in the avian world. They are mostly known for being cunning pranksters and pestering birds of prey either for their own amusement and at other times when they want to snatch an easy meal. Also, they enjoy teasing other animals in general (similarly to crows) but it is almost unprecedented that they resort to such violence as seen here. Normally they are quite protective of their territory and it's common for a mated pair of ravens to chase off encroaching birds of prey the instant they are spotted miles away. However, until this video, I have never seen ravens behaving as violent as this. Almost always they will employ a 'dive bombing' technique when they feel threatened by a bird of prey, such as can be seen in the first part of this video. They will repeatedly circle and swoop down close to the intruder (or nest) and keep repeating in an attempt to stave off the threatening bird of prey. Likewise, birds of prey will use this same technique towards corvids when they are foraging for food on the ground and are mostly vulnerable. Mated ravens will always work in pairs (juveniles in groups) when attempting to steal a meal. The simple strategy entails first one raven distracting the bird of prey (or animal) in question, then while distracted, the other raven will dive in and steal the meal. They are surgical in this approach. But unfortunately, its unclear in this video whether there were a pair of ravens working together or if it was a solitary raven. The latter would be extremely rare. This leads one to hypothesize several possible reasons for this violent outbreak. 1) Effects of deforestation and subsequent loss of natural habitat increases competition among ravens and birds of prey, 2) The Raven's mate was seriously injured by the adult Osprey or 3) The Raven's own chicks were injured or maimed by the Osprey. We will never really know. Yet as distasteful and heartbreaking as this scene is, it is important it was captured on video to aid in further scientific study of avian behaviour in the wild.

    • @GeemeffGeemeff
      @GeemeffGeemeff  3 года назад +8

      Thank you for taking the time to leave a detailed and thoughtful comment. I am not an expert, just an enthusiastic observer, but would agree with points 1 & 2 of your hypotheses - as wild land shrinks, the competition for space increases and more species will feel threatened by neighbours getting closer. It's unlikely the Raven's chicks were attacked by the Ospreys who are piscivorous, exclusively fish-eaters, and don't attack other nests but will defend their own. I feel that only one Raven was involved in the attack - the Raven that Alma flew after to chase away returned with her feathers stuck to its beak, evidence of their fight in the forest and thus the same Raven. My interpretation of it at any rate.
