I have following text for 22.9.:
Quote:
Fliegerführer Ostsee, Oberst von Wild, griff an diesem Tage persönlich Batterie Abruka mit Bomben und Bordwaffen an und konnte sich in zwei Luftkämpfen mit 1 I-16 und 2 I-153 mit seinem Seeflugzeug (He 114) dem Gegner ohne wesentliche Beschädigung seiner Maschine entziehen.
Damage by enemy aircraft was done probably near insel Abruka (Abro in german), if it is the same plane. http://www.wwii-photos-maps.com/targ...%20%20010.html

He 114B 2572 From 2./125 on 19.07.41. Ex. 7R+IK. 15.09.41 30% Pernau. Damaged by enemy flakduring attack on the seaplane station Papiari on Ösel island.
Location probably Papisaare: http://www.wwii-photos-maps.com/targ...%20%20019.html


http://www.luftwaffe-zur-see.de/Seel...n/Jahr1941.htm gives one additional He 114 loss for SAGr. 125:

09.09.41 He 114 A 2533 75% Aufkl.Gr. 125 (See) Überführungsflug, Führungsfehler wegen Glattwasser und Sonne.

I have also picture from expired e-bay action (see attachment), probable location is given as Pärnu / Pernau. Is more about this accident known? Can it be the same plane?
