May they all arrive back safely.
EJ's Memorial Balgavies Loch Ospreys 2023
14 August
CLYWEDOG - started on time
Dylan brought a bunch of small sticks @ 08:30-iwh.
Then a FISH!
496 ate quite a bit and flew with the rest @ 11:21.
Seren flew in @ 12:*7 (I can't read that * digit), didn't bring anything, just hung around... driven off by drizzle @ 13:10.
A couple of minutes later 496 dug out a fishtail:
They both flew, Seren returned and got this, it appeared from a very obstructed view that she only left a pink scrap for 496.
IMAGICAT
Brenig froze at about 09:15 this morning, no movement since.
Before that, the Jay popped onto the perch for a minute:
Clywedog
Dylan kept 496 flying on 'n off the nest while he well-headlessed this fish supper:
After eating for 35 minutes, 496 left this much on the nest, no-one came for it by closing time:
Spot the osprey The first time I have seen 496 for days he was eating but now flown Perhaps he was eating he fish SCYLLA reported was left on the nest
C NWWT llyn Clywedog
15 August
All 3 of our family were on the nest separately during the morning, no fish seen.
Next, TWO Jays
496 flew with this fish @ 15:17:
18:14 Dylan brought a tiny leftover and ate it on the nest, 496 watching but not looking as tho he needed feeding.
Seren was on the nest twice (at least) in the evening.
19:45 Dylan was sorting a clump - at that time a 6-hour clip had just ended and a new one was starting, so I could have missed a fish.
That was the last we saw of anyone.
16 August
At startup 496 was eating at the back of the nest with his back to us - then he flew off with the tailend:
He was soon back to receive a headless fish from Seren:
He flew with it:
Unknown said:Jays are so elusive and you got 2!
At least one is here every day, KORKY
First Jay visit, morsels found:
It appeared that Seren had been being teased by Dylan flying around with fish, she gave up and picked at some scraps at the back of the nest - then seemed to get buzzed - just one frame of osprey wing:
Second Jay visit - we could have had lovely close-ups if only:
Seren was back +/-11:30, left without being served.
That's only up to 12:30.
This'll be interesting (to me)... I've put these rough snaps in a batch resizer and they'll have come out in the wrong order so will I be able to sort them correctly - with no times on them
Seren was on the nest a lot !!!
Dang shame:
Unrecognisable fish:
Dylan on the left without a fish, he scarpered PDQ!
Last sighting of 496 around 17:00:
No-one seen after that.
