13 April 2021 - Mrs G laid her second egg this afternoon. Aran joined her on the nest a little later, after he was seen chasing another osprey in the valley.

2021-04-16:

Mrs G has laid her third egg of the season at 16:30 today. As if that wasn't good news enough, we are now also live streaming two cameras from the nest, so you never have to miss a moment of the excitement!

Ferenz, these nests are all doing well and it is a delight to see it. This is my response on all of the them in the Isles and thanking you for keeping up with them. I check in.

Fierce gusts today and a well known intruder appeared in the nest: female KS8 - hatched at Clywedog in 2018 -tried to push MrsG off the eggs. Aran went for a fish & returned, MrsG overtook and flew off...

...Aran chased the intruder. Later all things had calmed down, breeding pair reunited.

That well known intruder needs to find a nest and mate, yes?

Lots of mature UK-ospreys as well as KS8's brother KS7 - who joined the Glaslyn nest also - are migrating through Wales! They know where the best nests and breeding homes are, of course Glaslyn, Dyfi, Manton Bay and others. These competitive platforms are perfect.

Here's more about Clywedog chicks KS7 & KS8 at Dyfi & Glaslyn :Cool:

Nice commentary & video by well known RSPB-Forum member:
scylla - 10 May 2021 5:25 AM

While you are waiting for the official version - here's mine.

The cam was dreadful, freezing and skipping all the time - so I re-recorded some of it from rollback but it was bad there too, so I only used mine. Also worked on the sound but that's only marginally improved, what with the raging wind. Hopefully Glaslyn will have better.

Also, there was a lot of zooming etc, which caused some action to be missed.

KS8 was amazingly aggressive - including passive-aggressive, I'd say, and utterly determined - and hungry, she did fly off with the fish-piece in the end.

Thanks Ferenz...that was fascinating. She does deserve her own home, hopefully will find it, not try to pilfer another.
