Teifi left his flounder alone...a crow landed on the nest steeling some snacks from the fish...but he took off, cause Idris flew over the nest and arrived at Montys perch with a big fish (mullet I guess)

Crow returned on the nest but took off again as Teifi flew by chasing the intruder & landed on his nest

Teifi is 92 days old today and has practically taken ownership of the nest from any other bird... osprey, crow, blue tits, none are welcome.
However, every day he has an increasing urge to fly south, very soon that drive will become stronger than the urge to stay put, even if it means giving up his nest.
There is a perfect weather migration window this weekend, let's hope he takes it. Teifi will become the 23rd and last osprey chick to migrate from this nest over the last decade when he departs.
Soon the nest and 'Monty's Perch' will become redundant again for seven months, having served their purpose for another year.
From Einion to Teifi, we've seen some remarkable stories unfold over the last 10 years.

That post was a happy tear bringer. To see such success and remembering the osprey on it who are gone, is joy.

Teifi will go soon I bet.

Teifi is likely to have made a start on his journey south

Awww already? Safe travels if that is the case. Idris will be able to recoup energy for his trip which would be good.

By EMYR:
Well, he hasn't put a talon wrong in five months has he?
Idris brings another flounder to the nest yesterday for his younger son, Teifi, whilst - in all probability - Telyn is just reaching her wintering grounds by now; last seen 16 days ago.

It looks like Idris will stay on until the very end, thereby ensuring his offspring get the best chance possible in life once they're on their own. He had massive boots to fill; the boy's done good
Image
Teifi launched himself off the nest perch at 07:20 yesterday morning, he's not been seen since. We think he's gone.
Idris is still with us, looking around. And around. Thanks for the fish, Dad.

What an adventure this has been. If Idris is gone, godspeed. He sure did an incredible job. This nest was full of happy moments.
