DYFI DAILY OBS & CAPTURES - JULY 2020

How appropriate to start the new month on the chicks' first ringed day.

Compliments of ALISON:

"KC7 (Bob1) is Tywi (pronounced Toe-wee) and KC6 (Bob2) is Teifi (pronounced Tay-vee)"

  • Patily , go to the top of the class. Yes indeed, Pinnacle it is.

    A morning of flurry and wings Scylla, Many thanks. Especially like the last one and the UFO skimming below Telyn on Monty's perch. Definitely Area 51 ish
  • Tywi or Teifi resting on the nest in the company of a discarded flounder and somebody on the right side arm of Monty's perch
  • Somebody either end of Monty's perch
  • The first fish delivery I found:

    And the first collection:

    That juvie stayed on the nest eating.

    Later, the whole family was present oncam, the same fish was on the nest:

    Two osps out there together:

    It looks like the same fish, but who knows what transpired while we were away on tours of the cors?

    The juvie mastered it and wisely didn't try to fly off with it, he ate on the nest.

    Later, sib came and took over:

    Not a lot was left of the fish but I think some was left on the nest.

    Later, in the evening sun:

    Just one on-cam @ nightcam:
