Osprey & Badger Cam

Our Osprey Nest Camera is up and running in the Visitor Centre Coffee Shop and Online from 1015 and 1700 each day. Due to the rural location of Caerlaverock we have a poor broadband connection. This can cause a low quality picture and from time to time the camera may be unavailable.
