Dyfi Osprey Day 1&2 Second Hatch!, Africam Black Eagles Day 2&3, Harrison Bay Eagles Day 61&63 Branching! and Injury Update

The second egg has hatched at the Dyfi Osprey nest. One more to go!

Something flew over the nest. Dad puffed up to make himself look bigger. Mom jumped up and took off to defend the nest.

Both of the babies are getting plenty to eat.
