Poole Harbour Osprey Project MAY to end of 2020 season

5-6 more appearances up to 03:12, including this one:

G'night all!

Crows visited early this morning for 30 seconds, cawing, but only one on the nest:

One was back 16:48, on the perch for just over a minute, no vocals could be heard over the wind:

It's not been conducive to Nightjar courting so far tonight ;)

There definitely won't be any Nightjars this morning, but scrolling thru I saw a rain-blob mimicking one almost perched on the perch - but couldn't find it again when I tried to narrow it down

It's fab scrolling thru the rain, tho, and looking at the live stream just now it looked as tho I was FF-ing, it's so windy.

After another very windy night - and rainy but not as bad as the night before - our Nightjar turned up as cam changed from night to day - but not far enough into day to see it in colour.

Crows visited either side of the raptors:

I can get a shot of the Buzzard's right wing pattern but nothing 'nice' of the Osprey:

I would never have noticed them if you hadn't posted with the time, RICHARD - thanks! :)

Scylla, I try to put up the time to make it easier for you to find the clips.

The Nightjar has been to the perch 4 times up to 02:35 - staying for over a minute each time.

Nightjar was back @ 04:13, only for 30 seconds or so.  I've lightened this a bit.

Thank You Scylla for your efforts in keeping the thread going. 

The white deer is in the distance.

I find it sad that we don't see CJ7 on the nest now, she gave us some spectacular wing shots this season

Alison/anyone do you know if she has been seen recently on any of the other platforms or around the area?

She is still about and seen regularly, normally within a mile or so of this nest.
She has also been seen visiting a couple of other platforms locally.
