I have just had a look at Sanibel cam and I see an Osprey has arrived. No idea who it is - is it Ripply from last year or a new bird. I remember last year finding a facebook/blog page about this nest but for the life of me can't remember what it was so can't compare images from last season, so if anyone else can remember......

Nel looks to be doing really well doesn't she? :)

Yes they really have grown a huge amount. Regular meals certainly make a big difference.
The video of Nel being fed is even more wonderful to listen to than it is to watch, if that were possible. Am so missing the sound from LG. Thank you for the link TIGER.

thank you for sharing the link Tiger, nel really looks well.
I have posted some pictures I took yesterday at Balgavies Loch and have placed them on the Balgavies Loch thread.
These were taken yesterday but today was at Lochter and another nest close by all with chicks and will post pictures here a wee bit later tonight.

CHICK EXERCISING WITH OTHER CHICK LOOKING ON
MR BRANSON flew over my car and away to Bennachie probably to have a look around as he has plenty of food within a few feet of the nest - I have seen him fly off in a direction where other nests are so i think he likes to survey his territory - no one was crying out for food these are some well fed ospreys thanks to Ewen.
Thanks for the lovely pictures Keith. Healthy looking chicks.
Thank you Keith for more great pictures!
