Dyfi Osprey Day 26,28&29, Harrison Bay Eagles Day 90&92, Loch of the Lowes Osprey Day 34,36&37, White-bellied Sea Eagle, White Rock Eagles Day 68&69

The Dyfi Osprey chicks are so polite at feeding time. First this one gets some bites... 

...then this one gets some bites...

...then the third Osplet gets some bites.

Dad came along and showed off his one-legged standing skills.

Dad took off right as one of the babies pooped toward the cam.

Have you noticed the observation structure at the Dyfi nest? They are in the running for proceeds from their lottery, which they will us to put in a wheelchair lift. Please vote for them! It only took me a couple of minutes. Hit this link to read about it and watch the video at the end of the article. Then you can hit this link to vote.

Both of the Harrison Bay Fledglings were at the nest today. This is great! But one day they won't come... So, we need to enjoy them while we can! And speaking of that! The eaglets were playing together at the nest this evening. So cute and funny! I'm going to post a video - but it will have to wait until tomorrow since it's already past 2:00AM. For now, here's some s'caps from the day.





It was a rainy day at the Scottish Wildlife Trust's Loch of the Lowes Osprey nest.

The White-bellied Sea Eagle shows off some beautiful wings when it stands up. I'm not sure if this is Mom or Dad...
 
The egg is visible through the branches that make up the nest. It looks like the focus is on the branches though...

I believe this is Dad.


I captured a bit of video so you can hear these birds. They make a sound that is best called a squonk. Watch the Squonking video, you'll understand! (2:43)

And here's a link to a video of her laying the first egg. They capture and archive video of this nest every 3 hours! She lays the egg at nest time 11:38PM, which is only a few minutes into this video.

The White Rock Eaglets were in pancake mode today. They are filling up that nest! It's a good thing there's only two of them...
