One egg laid early and dispensed with, two further eggs being cherished by MrsG and Aran.
It's been a wet April in Wales. Intruders a-plenty, but Aran seems to have forsaken his 'other woman' and is devoted to MrsG and his eggs.
This morning @ about 0935hr - a fish for MrsG:
Delivery with rather weak sound, but it's something ;-)
IMAGICAT
Thanks Scylla :-)
Just come across this Tweet posted earlier by Glaslyn showing a different view of the nest.
Thanks to Scylla and Karen.
I went, with my OH, to visit Glaslyn yesterday morning. The sun was shining and there were quite a few cars in the car park. Mrs G was in residence, warming the eggs shortly after 11.00am. It was possible to occasionally see her head above the edge of the nest with the scopes provided, when she shifted around. No sign of Aran at that time, even though we and some visiting youngsters on the viewing platform were scouring the skies hoping to see him coming in.
I understand that he brought in a whopper, later! Spoke to one of the Volunteers, who told me about the story of the "early egg" which Mrs G had rejected. He said that an Otter had been seen in the river in front of the viewing platform recently, but although he kept looking, he had not seen it himself.
The Centre is looking very smart and tidy. The pictures from the cam are being shown in the Centre, and look very clear and sharp. We had a lovely visit, and will return in a month or so.
Wow, thank you for that report from the scene, LINDYBIRD :-) Otters! Worth a nighttime vigil? ;-)
Not looking comfortable right now, but bird on perch is happy enough with fish:
Thank you LINDYBIRD Glad you enjoyed your visit
