The purpose of this thread is for recording all observations and captures of the daily nest activity leaving the main Dyfi Osprey Project 2020 thread for all blogs, updates and general news of the Dyfi nests.

I've posted the blog on the main Dyfi thread but as it is such good news will post here too :-)
New blog from Dyfi - Telyn lays 1st Egg 2020
It's been hell !!!
All morning since the egg was laid the YouTube stream has been fragmentary - and rollback is no help, it only goes back 5 hours, which tallies with my experience here :(
Quite early, Idris brought a whole fish:
But took it away again >:(
First glimpse of the egg on our cam:
The fish was brought back more than once, shrinking each time, and this was what dear Telyn got in the end at about 12:10 (by my calc):
After Telyn flew with the fishtail the egg was uncovered and the stream did not recover until Idris was already incubating - did anyone see how long before it dawned on him to be a non-deadbeat-dad? ;)

I can answer my own question = not very long! A few minutes max !!! I'm having a lot of trouble with myself these days, as well as the streams, so I'll be a while before posting more info
