Poole Harbour Osprey Project MAY to end of 2020 season

Thanks for starting this new thread, scylla. I wonder what May will bring?

Thanks for the new thread, Scylla. Fingers crossed that LS7 (or any male!) turns up before CJ7 has laid too many more eggs!

CJ thru the morning:

She landed chipping:

Looking out for ???

gosh, fingers crossed!

Last sighting of CJ yesterday - very early in the day!

Back early this morning:

Keeps a foot on her egg:

She's been to and fro since, spent some time on the perch, back on the nest last time I checked.

Byeee! ;)

Thanks for starting the new thread Scylla and ALL the lovely pics. 

The nest is empty at the moment, well apart from the egg. 

On and off the nest during the morning, last seen @ 12:15:

A corvid, probably a raven by the size, and possible tail shape, flew towards the nest but flew on.

A lonely egg

A minute later a raven flies by

15.08 CJ7 returned with a cheerful chirrup

Six minutes later she dropped into the cup

15.15 a vague attempt at kicking it out

And just stood over the egg

A preen in the sunshine

15.47 she abruptly flew off, and returned to the campost I think

15.56 she called from the campost
