As there has been a sighting of an Osprey at Bassenthwaite, I thought it would be a good time to start this years thread.

The birds have been doing everything they should be during this important incubation time, despite the harsh weather! KL was getting hailed on earlier in the week, but she stayed put and kept the eggs warm and safe.

Tiger Signature
congratulations
Thanks TIGER We need some good news
You are right there Patily !
Birdies LG DU update.
The second chick hatched on the 19th, ie one day after the first, only on web site yesterday. I hope the pair look after them this year! Hope to visit one day this week.
Have just had a look at the LDOP camera and KL got up and I am pretty sure there are now 3 chicks in the nest. Cam a bit on the fuzzy side so hope I'm right!
