GLASLYN OSPREYS – MAY 2019

Thanks, COLIN.

Oh noooo !!! :'(

MrsG is being attacked - yes, attacked! - by a Raven - no!  I am reliably informed it's a CROW.  Thanks for passing that on, MIKE :)

It obviously senses vulnerability :'(

I'll do a video later, if poss, but I did have some browser interference :(

Just been reading back about how things developed after the earlier dive-bombingattack. So it was Tegid!  If Aran drives off all the males, even around the PC nest, what hope is there for 5F ever getting a mate?

Another thing I am not clear about Why had Mrs G not eaten since Tuesday as Ems posted and from Mike's conversation with Heather, does that mean she was able to feed yesterday?

A few minutes ago poor Mrs G being harassed by this crow It tried to drive her off the eggs several times and Mrs G was forced to respond much like Aran yesterday with Tegid It seems to have got the message now

Hi Sandra
Can I just clarify the information about the Pont Croesor nest (from BGGW blog)
Just to get the facts clear.
The camera on the Pont Croesor nest (5F) failed last year.
This year the owner of the nest, (who is not the land owner, but another person.) Refused permission to replace the camera.
BGGW can only observe 5F from their visitor centre with telescopes.

Not wanting to start any arguments, just getting the facts clear to people.

Absolutely, thank you Colin

5F was seen far from Glaslyn within the last few days.

 Thanks Tiger, appreciate your response

MrsG's been rained on now :(

Starting back before 04:00, to make sure Aran hasn't been seen:

MrsG got some shut-eye:

Later she was very alert:

When camperson came on duty s/he went looking for Aran:

(snaps in wrong order, too bad)

MrsG already calling at or for:

Crow "attack", and cheeky blighter pinched a morsel:

MrsG just had another short flyabout.

Camperson was focused very close on something...

(BTW, it's Windows Updates messing every thing up.  Two down and 3 to go.)
