Link to last post on Bywyd Gwyllt Glaslyn Wildlife - Galslyn Ospreys – April 2018
Summary of the season so far:
Mrs G arrived back 1 April and Aran on 5 April. The pair are currently incubating three eggs - #1 laid 19 April, #2 laid 22 April and #3 on 25 April and are due to hatch later this month.
Thanks for all the captures etc.
Can anyone tell me what that green box is?

Aran trying to put nest aterial on his back... (has he been to see YW?)
Starling, i suppose it is a cable/electricity box,for the connection, assuming here it has speciul waterproofing qualities ^^
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!
I think it's Aran on the nest with Mrs G on the perch preening.
Almost identical to Otter's post above.
Birdies LG DU update.
Morning All (I am following you around Mike)
Aran was incubating when I looked in, and Mrs G was flying around the camera was trying to follow her, but it looked like it was a crow or raven she was chasing, however it was the corvid that ended up chasing Mrs.G when she came back to the nest, then she settled on the eggs and Aran moved to the perch. Which is the scene now.
This was when Mrs.G arrived back at the nest after her fly around

That Corvid must like living dangerously to mess with Mrs G!
My snap on my morning rounds is from 8:19h, Aran (still?) i cubating...
and just now, the Mrs dozing off on chasing-corvid=themed=dreams ^^
Mrs G is incubating now and Arran is on the perch in that strange, green box, view.
Egg #2 was laid last night by Blue 5F on the Pont Croesor nest
In response to questions on the viability of the egg(s) Glaslyn responded:
Bywyd Gwyllt Glaslyn Wildlife - Glaslyn Ospreys. Very difficult to say - we must assume that they are. 5F has been incubating since she laid her first egg - she has left the nest briefly a couple of times.
She does not have a mate - Aran has made attemps at mating, albeit only a few.
There has been no sighting at Glaslyn of Gwynant since Saturday.

Thank you Sheila, for bringing this news over... to me it sounds we are all in the dark, but the eggs need protection either way.
@h20:47 mrs G turned the eggs carefully, it is misty and slowly going dark...
