It was a relatively quiet week last week, with the pair spending most of their time incubating and tidying the nest – the male occasionally brought fish back to the nest.
Over the weekend the large female osprey was seen again, and was mobbing the nest – on both occasions the pair chased her off with the eggs kept safe and well away from the outsider.
Another pair of ospreys have been regularly seen circling high above the valley, and then moving off to the north towards Beddgeleret. Where they’ve come from and where they go to is not know, and although there is a nesting platform nearby they do not appear to be taking any interest in that.
We’ll keep you posted on their whereabouts and update you on any news about the eggs as soon as anything happens.
