GLASLYN OSPREYS – JUNE 2019

What a sad scenario,and like Mike says little one just cannot turn, looking back it appeared to topple over, so is not pinned down, just its body weight, stopping it from turning.

Thought when both adults on nest ,and seeing their distress, I was willing one  of them,to go give little one a push, wonder if they are trying to move bits and sticks to help it.

Oh this is just heartbreaking, I hope it somehow manages to free itself.

12.06 no change :(
Mrs G on the nest, #1 up and watching Mrs G

Oh this is unbearable! I’m in tears.

I can't believe this .... I wish someone would just get a ladder and go and help it!

Steady on Alison. The chick is well fed so far and weather looks set fine and warm with a light breeze. If the dead chick gets removed that will alter everything.

OMG! Little one was on its back when I looked in briefly just before 11 and the poor little thing hasn't managed yet to right itself Please Mrs G take away poor little #2

I don't understand why one of the adults don't help it - they surely can hear and see its plight!

I don’t post on this forum often but I have to say that I wish Glaslyn would intervene on this occasion. This chick clearly can’t right itself, s/he has been struggling too long

Whatever Glaslyn do or don’t do, they will get criticised, so it is not easy for them.

Bless you and thank you Sandra for your observations at 10.57.

We can all wish and long for Mrs G or Aran to help but I don’t think they know how. They don’t have our thought process. Please let’s not blame them.

Alison and Karen, I liked your posts because I share your sentiments.
