2024 Season (link to thread)
Juvie 0C5 was spotted in Portugal in October
The season was marred (for watchers) by cam problems...

Let's hope that the "few surprises" include good news re cams.

ESTHWAITE - OSPREY SAFARI
Not yet open, awaiting news.
IMAGICAT
Thanks for the opening post scylla, I will certainly be Watchng this Space!
Hi, Thanks to all for the regular Osprey news! I have been lurking and read it all.
Very sadly I have to say that the Esthwaite Safari closed last October. The very nice couple who were running the cafe retired and the Estate has closed the cafe and also the boat hire. I will miss it a lot, so will many others.We have not heard what if anything is intended, but when I went round there a few weeks ago the cafe and the larger car park were both gated off.
Hopefully the Ospreys will return, but no camera or observation facilities.
Thanks for the lovely opener to the season Scylla. Fingers crossed for another successful season.
That’s a shame about the osprey safari ChrisyB, thanks for letting us know.
Cumbria WT posted a short reel on Instagram two days ago.
These are a couple of screenshots I took from the reel.

See, GLIDER? I knew you'd be indispensable
I'm having an absolute mare with this post, it's disappeared twice!
Suffice to say that the new cam links are in the Osprey Chat thread; that the 360 cam on YouTube seems to have been replaced by Cam1; and that the welcome Perching Tree cam... will make for more work - don't complain, she says to self
Haha, “the gothspreys”
Posted on Twitter/X yesterday.
Soooo clever!
