    From your video Scylla, it seems to me i can hear corvids amidst the background noises. I may be going nuts of course. i am known for hearing voices in small waterstreams. (At least corvids tend to be real! ;) )

    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! 

  • hi everybody, thanks for all the photos and updates. I put a post in the other day about dehydration so thanks very much for putting my mind at rest and saying EJ was drinking. having come from a hawking family and they have bred them Claire was right in what she said that the feathers do fall out but EJ looks like she is losing primaries? to me she looks like she is becoming submissive[weak]to how she was when she turned up 3 weeks ago. is she losing condition? only post now and then not very good at typing. moffer when a bird migrates wings out no energy thermals carry them incubation different ball game
