A update from the Manton Bay nest - Monday 10 August 2020

... the chicks are getting ready to migrate...

Throughout the weeks after fledging the young Ospreys have been making more and more exploratory flights around the nest site at Manton Bay.

They will sometimes venture further afield and be away for a few hours or sometimes days. Two of our youngsters did exactly this, one – 080 - returned after five days away. The other youngster 082 has not yet returned and we think it has decided to leave early on migration, this will occasionally happen.

Maya's not sharing with the youngsters!

Action in and around the Manton Bay nest - as the youngster 081 leaves the remains of a trout in the nest, Maya flies in with 080 but is clearly not interested in letting the fledgling share the fish.
