The Dyfi Osprey enjoyed a beautiful day. Mom is standing watch over her babies while they all put their heads together.
Dad brought a nice fish.
Look at that height! I watched this nest for a half hour today and this is the most height I saw. I don't know if any of them are ready to fledge. I didn't see any that looked ready during the half hour I watched. But hey, it was only a half hour... But I'm going to start watching more of this nest now that we are close and try to catch the fledging of these chicks.
One of the Dyfi Osplets was wingercizing and had a slight mishap. Check out the Helicoptering & Sibling Surfing video (0:30):
The Harrison Bay Eagles didn't spend as much time at the nest today. Our days with them may be running short. We got this pretty view for a bit.
One of the fledglings eventually came to the nest, crying for food.
No luck. Let's try crying on this branch...
Maybe crying from this branch will get results.
Then, there's a mad dash to the nest!
Nope, it's just the other fledgling coming to the nest. And they both cried for a bit...
They eventually gave up on food and went to their perch for the night. There was some play between the two siblings. So cute!
The Scottish Wildlife Trust's Loch of the Lowes Osprey still have one baby that hasn't fledged... At least as far as I know. The camera went down today. They haven't posted that the last chick has fledged, so I guess fledge watch continues... Here's some s'caps from the day. Two of the Osplets were watching something, swiveling their heads in unison.
Then the third Osplet joined the other two in the nest and they all gazed off in the same direction.
They are so photogenic!
It looked like the Berry College Bluebirds were preparing the nest box for another clutch of eggs, and then they stopped. Not sure what happened...
