We had zero chicks at Loch Garten nest this summer, so there are none to follow this winter. EJ and Odin have migrated south and with neither tagged we cannot follow them. Sadly, we have lost Breagha, the last tagged LG offspring. Once again a healthy Loch Garten chick is “lost contact, presumed dead”. Even the camera is away for the winter. Thus we have lost all contact with the Loch Garten nest. For the first time since I found EJ and the Loch Garten nest, there is NOTHING LEFT. Nothing left, that is, except HOPE for a better season in 1916.
On this note of hope I will maintain The Gabfest in a semi-retired state. Thus we will be open for any osprey news which comes through, whether it be from UK or USA or Africa. Also any bird or wildlife photos or news are always appreciated here.
Over Thanksgiving, Christmas and New Year’s Eve some may wish to share photos of their cakes, Christmas Trees and/or some music videos. Winter gardening, trains, anything goes here on the Gabfest that anyone wants to talk about.
So if anyone cares to come in for a wee chat, the Gabfest may be sleeping, but it is open.
My childhood family home is on the edge of Dartmoor so it has a special place in my heart. We visited last weekend to see my Dad and saw a Raven picking on someones picnic remains! Beautiful bird :)
My Dunedin problem now is that I cannot make connections, haven't been able to for several years now. For this nest I would even be willing to pay a small if that were the only problem, u I ear I may need a special app of some kind.
Any news I get now is thru Facebook.
Hi June

Yes, like Limpy, I just get a wee square with an x instead of a picture. Must be something lacking in our individual computers. Frustratig, as I would like to watch this particular nest.
