I wouldn’t normally expect to write another blog until the weekend but I thought you’d be interested to know that Samson attracted a fifth, and maybe even a sixth, female in the last couple of days and also had an unusual addition to the nest. Now, I know there are several osprey nests that youContinue reading “NEST ADDITIONS AND INTRUDERS”

Let’s have a guessing game to start this blog. Which female, if any, has been on the nest this last week? Hands up who thinks it was 3AF? OK, and Unringed? Bandit? No one? Well, good tries everyone ….. but you’re all wrong. It was JW6, of course!! Let me enlighten you. As is customaryContinue reading “MUSICAL CHAIRS – WHEN THE MUSIC STOPS”

First of all, I’d like to thank you for all your kind comments about my last blog. Your input is very much appreciated and it’s so nice to know I’m not talking to myself.   I left you on a bit of a cliffhanger, I know, so I’d best update you without further ado. ForContinue reading “HOW ARE YOUR NERVES?”

Those of you who have read my blog over the past year will know that I firmly believe that the ospreys are included in your numbers. They wait until I put something in writing…and then do the opposite. 3AF/Astra has been no exception, so Samson must have given her the web address. No sooner hadContinue reading “MORE TWISTS AND TURNS THAN A CORKSCREW”
