The Plot thickens.....Intruders, Eggs, Drone, ....and Nature Unfolds. Herei s this week's blog http://tinyurl.com/z9bzzzy. I'm thinking this is a pretty "Hi Tech" Operation here -
Great update HbrgA. Thanks for keeping this updated. I'm so happy they're not sending people to invade the nest. That drone was in and out without any effect. The people only took one chance of having the drone plucked from the air by one of the osprey... or a really cool PeFa. The danger a drone could have would be the bird getting whacked by one of the props. But... they were in and out pretty fast.

While we are waiting hatch time for Monty and Glesni we are being entertained by news of their 2103 offspring Clarach. This blog is kind of long, but it explains some of the Osprey craziness in re-establishing a population. http://tinyurl.com/z5s7dsw

Unusual year...Egg 2 did not hatch; but Egg 3 did - 4 1/2 days after #1. Here's the 2nd Chick Hatch video. Bob 1 and Bob 2 until ringing at about 5 weeks, then they will be named for Welsh rivers or lakes.
4 1/2 days difference at this age is big-soon, no problem. Interesting question today about the color of the egg. -Whitey Bob.PNG - Bild entfernt (keine Rechte)
Ahhh yes, the black garbage bag. As much as people are pretty good about picking up their garbage, we followed a garbage truck that was strewing lightweight plastic things all up and down the highway. We might need to send these pics and videos to the garbage companies. Great update HbrgA. Thanks
