This is the first look at the pip this morning.
Mom is so pretty sitting on the nest. This really is a pretty location.
This s'cap is from Asleepnomore's video (used here with permission). It is hard to get a look at these eggs. But you can see the pip is bigger tonight.
Here's Asleepnomore's video. Check out just how little opportunity she gives you to see the eggs!
The Dyfi Osprey are still on hatch watch as well... And they too are pretty stingy with their views of the eggs... This is probably the best view of the eggs, but there was nobody in attendance so early in the morning to zoom the cam...
We got some zoom for this view of the eggs. I don't see any pip yet.
It's funny how small the Osprey on the back perch looks!
The happy couple... Mom has the leg band.
Yay, Zoomer brought us in close. Boo, hiss! Nesting material is in the way!
I'm still waiting for the Harrison Bay eaglets to venture out onto the branches. For now, they are content to lay around the nest -- although they are spending more time looking outward.
I saw some really vigorous wingercizing today.
Contemplating the world. I wonder what it's like to be a bird. You watch the parents come and go all day, then get it into your head that you can do that too. And one day you muster the courage to test the concept, and fly!
I noticed something black on the White Rock parent's head yesterday but figured it was something temporary. But it's still there today. Might need a good rain to wash it away.
It was just before sunrise (their time) when I checked in at the Scottish Wildlife Trust's Loch of the Lowes Osprey nest. Mom stood up at one point and babies sprang out. It's like they were just waiting for the weight of Mom to lift off and out popped their heads. Soon enough, they won't need to be brooded any more... There's a baby's head at 7:00 and another at 1:00.
