FOULSHAW MOSS OSPREYS - 2017

Hi Chrisy - I am sure it is!   I recall CWT advising in either an update or a Tweet that when the birds were at the second nest, although no camera, they could see the nest with binoculars.  

I'll see if I can find some photos that were Tweeted last year by a local birder.

Back on the nest and an attempt at mating.

Thanks Karen and Jane. There is an osprey on the nest just now, not sure which as sideways on, hanging on in the wind!

Just moved enough to see that it is Blue 35

Thanks for the heads up Chrisy  ...  It is Blue 35, can just see her ring.

Here is the capture

underneath the webcam on the updates they posted this:

The birds can still be spotted at the reserve from our viewing platform there, along with lots of other wildlife. Binoculars and telescope are available to use when our staff / volunteers are on-site, which is most of the time. 

Would that be what you are thinking of?

Yes, that is what I read.  Thanks Starling :-)

Here is a full copy of the update 6 April 

Talking of updates .. CWT have posted another update today

Both present. Blue 35 was perched with her back to us when White YW flew in.
