GOOD MORNING ALL
Three chicks are loafing around waiting on breakfast probably.
I think the first fledge will come from MB. :-)
Grey skies this morning.

One eating and T6 standing
Morning Mike, Patily - thanks for the earlier posts.
The juve has flown leaving T6 alone. Unsure if it took the fish or if any fish left on the nest.
Hope there is some left and we see Maya arrive to feed T6.
Good morning Karen and Patily.
Birdies LG DU update.
Hi KAREN and MIKE
A few moments ago T6 was standing normally, looking around and generally looking more 'normal'. She has now dropped back into the hunched pose...although as I check again she is preening.
Morning all
As posted on Dyfi thread, I do wonder about a virus i.e Avian Flu. ( Can be picked up in manure and our ospreys do bring in clods at times)

and T6
33 earlier delivered a fish which one of the juves ate while T6 stood back. Juve finished and T6 has approached the fish and is eating it. Unfortunately she is not holding it and now 33 has arrived.
Thankfully 33 has flown off leaving the fish with her. T6 continues to eat and is moving with it. She does appear to be struggling a little and I am unsure if she has a hold of it but she continues to peck away at the fish.

We can only hope with continual nourishment and rest that she heals.
Morning everyone, T6 has a fish (actually 2) but she is not standing on it due to her leg but at least she is getting some food.
Snap Karen lol
Hi Jane :-)
Good to watch T6 left in peace to peck away and she now has placed her right foot on the fish which is a good sign.
She is getting tucked into that fish now :-))
