Miila has got a visitor TNN ringed on 8th July 2020 only 35 kms from Paltamo.

TNN has brought two fish so far but the deliveries haven't been successful so Miila has missed the preys. He has brought some nesting material, too. And Miila has accepted the presence of TNN.

New yellow banded male visitor tried to expell all eggs, but it didn't work.While nestorating the eggs rolled back :roll:
..three eggs are still in the nest by now.

Milla is very fortunate to have him come to her. Hopefully he will continue to accept the eggs....What a series of events!

The new guy TNN - named Tommi by the man who banded him - is not so gently as I guessed. First he tried to mate with Miila in vain and later he expelled one egg to the nest rim, but failed with the other 2 eggs...

Paltamo:
There has been another male with yellow rings who has tried to get on Miila and the nest. I have no time stamps of those "attacks". But Tommi seems to have a friendly relationship with Miila. Today Tommi was there with fish, but Miila was absent, yesterday he provided four fish and lots of nesting material. My sympathies are with Tommi

14:16:53 Tommi (dot on left wing) with stick...and an unbanded female (not Miila).

If I get this right, it sure looks like a total nest takeover. Poor Milla, if I am right. Correct me if I am not Ferenz.

I guess that Miila has lost the nest by now, cause two competing new males are enforcing their efforts to mate with that new female.

But let's wait and see how things evolve in 2024 season if Dame Miila returns early to find a new male. Why not Penna, where ever he is staying and hopefully recovering from injuries during a territorial fight with other ospreys. :hug:

Thank you Ferenz....Those are excellent thoughts especially since Milla tends to come back earlish. We will see. For now we'll see how this works out!
