Link to previous thread: Dyfi Osprey Project - May 2019
The season so far: Telyn (Blue 3J) arrived back 30 March and Monty on 1 April. Telyn laid 3 eggs 17, 20 and 23 April hatching 26, 27 and 29 May. Telyn and Monty continue to work hard to raise their young and Monty is once more proving to be an excellent provider bringing in plenty of fish to feed his family.

Sorry to be so late again!
KA1 was the only chick I found who showed off her ring.
After the chicks came home Monty & Telyn spent a while recovering together on the perch:
Monty brought a nice big not-flounder for the chicks' first meal with bling:

P'nawn da,
It seems that Telyn has picked up an injury to her foot. This morning, she left the camera pole just after 08.30am and all was well. She returned a few minutes later and her feet were visibly bloody. She seemed reluctant to put her full weight on her right foot and we believe this is the injured one.
We cannot see anything stuck in it or wrapped around it. The most likely explanation is that she tried to pick up a stick for the nest and cut herself. We have been monitoring her all morning and can do nothing else, she seems fine otherwise.
She was able to stand on the foot while she fed the chicks this afternoon so we don't think it is too bad. A few good dips in salty water should help clean it up. We will continue to monitor her and keep you posted.
Apologies to everyone hoping to see the ringing video today. The old computer is struggling to process everything so it is taking longer than expected. All being well, it should be ready tomorrow.
I doesn't sounds as tho they are too worried. A wash or two in salty water cures a lot of injuries! From chat:
2:11 PM Colin Monty very serious about the intruder
