    I have sound and stills, a slideshow kinda thing. But promising and much better then nothing at all!

    2016: first time in history an Osprey nested in the NL. 2018: 2 active nests! 2019 a storm interferes. 2020: a third active nest in a tree!

    EJ has returned and Odin is standing more comfortably:

    She's in feeding position but I can't make out a fish.

    Our herring gulls are red listed birds.  Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.

    Is the big chick sitting on the small one?!

    We are going to attempt some fault finding with the help of Julie at the centre, so the stream will be off again for the next half hour.

    There is an update on the Rspb fb page. Sorry, I've no idea how to do links here but I'll try.

    Edit: well that didn't work lol.

    Here's what it says:

    RSPB Operation Osprey
    15 mins · 

    Good morning everyone. Just to let you know we have managed to fix the problems with the webcam this morning. Apologies for any inconvenience overnight. We are also aware of the issues on the Community pages of the RSPB website and have alerted HQ. They will be sorting it out ASAP, but for now there is unfortunately not a lot we can do from here. We'll keep you all posted.

    Anyway, onto the important news - the Ospreys! This morning we have had a fishy breakfast brought to the nest at 4:30 and both chicks have been fed. An intruder has just flown over the nest with EJ alarm calling but it seems to have just been passing through.

    Good morning, Otter.  It's interesting that LG's broadband drastically slows down at the same time the Community comes under cyber attack - I don't know if the events are connected but it seems like quite a coincidence.

    Odin looks rather intrudery in your snap, CLARE :o

    I've had to turn off my auto-refresh cos it's so slow, the black screen takes over.

    Thank you.  Rather you than me!  I'm hopelessly untechnical.

    Odin has flown and EJ has settled:

    Not quite.  The small one has sneaked in front of the big one as it knows it will get fed there.
