Looking particularly well behaved in an orderly line for a feed. isn’t nature wonderful and terrible in equal measure. never more apparent than this season.
Hi Dyfi do the chicks have names I thought I saw a reference to Senni on the X post.
The two females are Gwenlais and Coron, the boy is Senni
Posted on X earlier. He might be off tomorrow or within the next few days.
And one of the girls said 'stop showing off'

25 JulyA wee look at the nest since the chicks have fledged.
07.25 6B2, Coron (the largest chick, egg2!) was on the nest when Idris flew in with a large headless fish.
07.28 Gwenlais 6B1 (Chick1) arrives and watches her sister eat.
07.45 Senni, 6B3 (C3) arrives
He immediately snatches some loose fish parts that are lying on the nest.
09.27 Later, Telyn is feeding the 2 females. DOP comment on the chat “Feeding two birds that are bigger than her”
On the chat this morning someone said that there was a close flyby of a barn owl at 22.10 that Telyn wasn’t too pleased about.
Unfortunately I’m too late to read this so can’t rewind that far back to see it.
30 July
4 fish delivered early this morning.
07.08 Idris delivers a good sized fish to Gwenlais
07.36 He returns with another big one for Coron
08.11 Telyn brings a small fish to Senni
08.24 Idris bags another large fish for himself, taking it to Monty’s perch.
