I'm still waiting for her to leave so's I can finish her "first evening/night" video. She is one tough cookie!
Good Morning All
I cannot believe Mrs.G is still on the perch with her fish - it must be stiff as a board now, it is so windy too, how she has hung on all night is admirable, wish she had cooried down in the nest she would have got some protection from the high sides.
Last night around 10.30 - 11 pm
This morning what a brave Osprey she is
