According to chat Dysynni still not been seen

Oh dear, well I hope this caption is accurate ©Dyfi Osprey Project:

Yes, it's definitely the 2 chicks, unless I'm reading the feathers wrong - this (unretouched) is another sample from just before your series earlier:

He got a fish from Telyn:

Idris delivered this marmalised fish to the nest eventually - a chick was there being tunefully fed by Telyn, which deserves a video (audio) but won't get one

Idris & Telyn:

Thanks SCYLLA A relief to know that in factboth youngsters are still around One of them is currently on the nest shouting for Wales but so far Idris not responding

Patily, Ems has posted on Facebook that Dysynni has not been seen for 24 hours.
Depends on when MC's photo was captured.

Dysynni arrived back around 10am. On the nest now.

Just looked in at the nest. One juve eating the other watching on.

Just looked in on the nest, one juve eating, one looking on. This was via my phone.

A bit before 10:15:

As Dysynni took the discarded fish, roe was revealed:

Dysynni complained about too much skin and not enough flesh ;)

He took the fish up to the perch.

Later, there were 2 "out there":

Ystwyth with Mullet:

Telyn brought another but no-one came for it:

Telyn took it to the perch and waited and waited for someone to give it to:

She's still there - a chick is on the other end eating.

All four present now. Mum and Dad on Monty's perch.
Juv's on nest.

All four have been seen this morning. Idris currently eating a 'Whale' on Monty's perch.

There are some seriously good observations here and excellent captures Scylla, Patily, Mike and Lynette. I am very grateful to you all (all captures to my folder Scylla and certain ones going to Zilpha (who is not doing well, sigh) tomorrow.
