Great job as always, MrsG!  (And Aran ;) )

SHEILA apologised to ALISON: I have inadvertently duplicated!

And I've duplicated everybody! :-/

But lovely duplications, nonetheless!!

And a bit more info about the 50 eggs (so far):

Bywyd Gwyllt Glaslyn Wildlife - Glaslyn Ospreys.

36 fledged to date. Hopefully 39 by the end of the season.

Edit:  I have just seen a blog from Glaslyn on 13 April, which I don't think was posted here.  Blue W0(15) m was seen at Threave.  I think the news may have been posted on FB too.

But in the blog, almost in passing, they mention that not only has Mrs G has 36 fledged chicks but she has 74 ‘grandchicks’   How amazing.  I wonder who many of those 74 are known of since fledging.

MrsG - what a woman !!!  A credit to the Osprey world and a treasure to us all :-*

Many thanks to Everyone for all of the pics and posts.
Sheila, Two of the males on nests at Kielder, White YA and Yellow 37, are sons of Mrs G and her first partner. Both, with their partners, have successfully fledged chicks for many years. You can see these two and a list of other Glaslyn chicks which have been sighted and any resultant chicks of theirs (but not yet including any data from 2018) here:

When I looked in earlier in the day it looked miserable and Mrs.G was sitting. Now a second egg, well done.
