Osprey & Badger Cam

Our Osprey Nest Camera is up and running in the Visitor Centre Coffee Shop, so we are just waiting for the birds to return to the nest. We hope to be able to show it online soon, but problems with our internet connection means we can’t at the moment. This also means that, for the moment, we can’t show Badger Cam. We are working on the problem and will hopefully have them online soon.
