Figured since all the other ospreys have new threads, I'd start a new thread for the nearest (visitable) nest to me, Balgavies Loch. There seemed to be a few people in the hide so I didn't go in as I had the dogs with me to read the log to see what has been happening. I know most people don't mind the dogs but if it is busy we give the hide a miss. We did the walk around the loch and saw plenty of action from the ospreys. The male chased off a heron and flew overhead before he got down to some frisky stuff with the female, so I guess that means they don't have eggs yet?

Thanks MARY Lovely picture
Video of White UF feeding her chick.... it is a shame that they won't be ringing the chick the reason being the difficult access, although there were a few sceptics in the hide :-)

Patily if you go on to their Facebook page there are loads of fab photos of the chick, male and female. Darren is a wonderful photographer considering the distance from the nest.
