Nest building and more black plastic
Both ospreys have been bringing in sticks to re profile the nest and as usual have brought in some blck plastic. As in previous years this discarded silage wrap gets woven into the nest and can flap about in the wind. We are always concerned that it may get tangled in tallons or wrap around chicks or eggs. This morning both birds were on the nest first thing but by 10am both were not seen on the CCTV however it looked like the female was siitting on the perch above the camera as we could see tail feathers appear evey now and then. The sunshine and warm weather has given way to wet and breezy conditions. Hopefully we will see the nest completed soon and eggs on the way.
