Well, it's now 2024 and hopefully another successful year for the Poole Harbour Ospreys.
The last couple of years have seen the successful establishment of a nest and raising of young.
Translocated females From the harbour have set up successful nests in Wales also raising young.
Hopefully this year may see the establishment of a second nest in the Harbour area.

Here was the family last year
I hope Alison Copland won't mind but here is a link to a video she has made of the 2023 season. It is a must watch for followers of Ospreys, especially the Poole harbour family

I know Scylla, I tried to reply to my last message to add a new one but instead reposted my last message which I’ve now deleted!

Blue 372 visited Aran at Glaslyn this afternoon. She was translocated to Poole Harbour in 2021 and was seen in Wales in 2023 as well.

Well I was packing up but realised how much has piled up here so have had another whip thru.
Look how they've got the nest so colourfully organised already!
Yes, the nest is looking good Scylla.
