5F Seren hatched at nest K, Rutland, from parents Red 08 (m) and Yellow 30 (f). Chris Wood, who volunteers at the Rutland osprey project, has been following her for at least 7 years to Tanji Marsh in the Gambia. She has been at this nest with Dylan since 2020, after suffering abandonment by bigamist Aran at Pont Croesor.
Dylan is unringed, he's been breeding at this nest since 2016, when he ousted dear Dai Dot.

Dylan didn’t disappoint and delivered one a few minutes later at 15.48.44. The camera was too smudgy with rain to take a decent screenshot.
Here are the chicks on the nest and it was 553 who got the fish, incidentally who was the last to fly down from the perch!
