Dyfi Osprey out fishing

Monday Jun 08, 2009

As a tribe we went to see if the Osprey was home yesterday at the Dyfi Osprey Project where they have a built a platform for the bird to nest. Indeed there is a pair there for the 2nd year, but is getting too late for them to hatch chicks we were told at the centre. They had some great video from the previous day of the female Osprey eating a fish it had caught.

They had water buffalo there last year which do a great job of reclaiming clear felled forest in bog again, but they have been moved somewhere else. Hope they return.

Well worth a 1/2 hour visit if you are in the area or a longer visit if an Osprey floats your boat and she is at home.

I drove past this twice at the weekend, but figured my chances of seeing a live Osprey were small, so didn't stop. Wish I'd taken half an hour out of the journey to check it out now.
