The Ospreys are back !!

Carnyx Wild  have a very good mobile team, Nell !!

{ Brian wonders if they could fix this blooming forum out if we ask nicely    }

Just seen that the pair of Ospreys at Manton Bay, Rutland, Blue 33 and Maya, have arrived this lunchtime, at 12:29 and 12:56 respectively and had mated by 1:00!!!😯 They were 3 days later arriving than last year.

Clywedog Fishery opened today so will have details no doubt of sightings in next few days.

Dontcha just love honeymoons👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Four minutes after arriving. Obviously keen.

They have to get it done in short time to reclaim their nest, as a pair of Egypt Geese have been visiting while they were away "over there" and trying to stake a claim.😃

You're just egging 'em on  

Egyptian geese are quite aggressive. We had a bolshie pair on a site we stayed on in Metz two years back.

As it happens there are also a pair of EGs trying to take over the osprey's nest at the Loch of the Lowes.
