09:21 |
Livia Armstrong |
It wasn’t nice to see at all, he died just over a week ago. Flora (HK0) the mum took him off the nest last night |
|
09:21 |
Paul & Ruth Boughton |

Paul & Ruth Boughton |
Morning @ISquishWorms |
|
09:23 |
Livia Armstrong |
But the other two Forest, male and Marlow, female are looking great. Harry is a reliable dad. He’s usually brought fish by now so hopefully there will be one soon. He sometimes brings flatfish |
|
09:24 |
Paul & Ruth Boughton |
I’m away for a bit,grateful for any ts especially fish, 👋👋 |
|

09:32 Flora to nest calling. Morning Kate, Patrick and BFN Ruth |
|
09:34 |
Marta |
In Cabrera, Spain, two chicks were born, and the older one wouldn't let the younger one eat and died. The father brought home a small fish every day. |
|
09:35 |
Janet Abraham |
Have we incoming? |
|
09:35 |
Livia Armstrong |
09:34 intruder around as Flora is mangling. Oh that is sad Marta |
|
09:35 |
Marta |
After that, the mother disappeared, and the chick had to be rescued. Today, it flies free. |
|
09:35 |
James Thompson |
Intruder fly-by |
|
09:36 |
Livia Armstrong |
I’m glad the chick was rescued there. Sadly wasn’t an option here as the nest is 25m high and the only person able to access the nest was 500 miles away |
|
09:36 |
kate |
Just a thought oops Flora just arrived 09.32.25 as I was saying wonder if Oakleys tag will ever be discovered, Bless him |
|
09:37 |
James Thompson |
Is that the one that was rescued Marta, and the dad turned up the next day with a fish? I watched the rescue boat sailing over to get it, if its the same one? |
|
09:38 |
kate |
09.34.29 Flora going mad at intruder |
|
09:38 |
Livia Armstrong |
This nest wasn’t constructed in 2014 as a replacement for electricity pylons where they chose to nest before. The pylons were being replaced so artificial pole had to be high enough be to attractive |
|
09:38 |
Marta |
Yes he was @James Thompson |
|
09:39 |
Janet Abraham |
@kate I wonder that too |
|
09:39 |
Marta |
I cry when one of the chicks die I know it's nature... but.... |
|
09:39 |
Scirocco67 |
9.38 intruder unringed |
|
09:40 |
James Thompson |
I had seen that he was placed in a rescue/aviary on IV fluids and a gastric tube. So, he has survived then @Marta? And is being released today? |
|
09:40 |
Livia Armstrong |
Was* constructed in 2014 sorry. |
|
09:44 |
Marta |
@James Thompson 1V2 Brunet was transferred to the peninsula and thanks to the cares he flies happily. |
|
09:44 |
James Thompson |
That's great news @Marta, thanks for the update! |
|
09:44 |
Livia Armstrong |
That’s brilliant to hear 😄 |
|
09:49 |
Janet Abraham |
Fish! |
|
09:50 |
Vee Robson |
Good to see a fish. The dancing worked. Hi Jan. |
|
09:51 |
Janet Abraham |
👋👋👋👋Vee! |
|
09:51 |
Vee Robson |
9:49 fish |
|
09:52 |
Scirocco67 |
Hi Vee good to see you |
|
09:53 |
Vee Robson |
I have just wrote the same thing S67 but slow mode wouldn't allow it. |
|
09:53 |
Scirocco67 |
Yes I don’t understand that, never met it before |
|
09:55 |
Vee Robson |
Me either. I hope all is good with you and the job. The weather will suit you too all sunshine. |
|
09:56 |
Scirocco67 |
I am one of the few who have been enjoying the warmth, it will be cold and dark again soon enough, hope Steve has been passing on my best wishes |
|
09:57 |
Vee Robson |
Yes, He did. And thank you. |
|
09:58 |
Scirocco67 |
No worries, hope all well with you and yours |
|
09:59 |
Vee Robson |
Been a bit iffy but all good now. I am trying to see what fish Harry brought in. Any ideas? |
|
09:59 |
Janet Abraham |
A doomed one😢 |
|
10:00 |
Vee Robson |
It went to a good place though Jan. |
|
10:01 |
Scirocco67 |
Looked a bit flat to me, I am new to here so don’t know what comes in. Good morning Janet |
|
10:02 |
Vee Robson |
Maybe a flounder? |
|
10:02 |
Janet Abraham |
It did, Vee. Well that’s it from me for another day, happy watching everyone, and many fishes. Hi S67. |
|
10:03 |
Scirocco67 |
Skin is tough perhaps a Flounder, I tried sending same time as you but slow mode said no |
|
10:03 |
Val Gall |
Yes looks like a flattie |
|
10:04 |
Vee Robson |
Yes, Slow Mode is unforgiving. |
|
10:04 |
Livia Armstrong |
Slow mode has been a frustration since camera came back sadly. Harry often brings flounders. Noticed it coincided with low tide at Tay Estuary, so it’s approx a 30 mile round trip for him |
|
10:04 |
Patrick Mc Phail |
nice to see my fish 🐟 dancing 🕺 skills being put to good use 👍 |
|
10:05 |
Janet Abraham |
Success every time @Patrick Mc Phail 😁 |
|
10:05 |
Vee Robson |
Thank you for confirmation. And the dancing |
|
10:06 |
Scirocco67 |
No wonder he had eaten half of it @Livia Armstrong |
|
10:06 |
Patrick Mc Phail |
👍 Janet |
|
10:07 |
Vee Robson |
They are highly nutritional and great for neck muscle workouts. |
|
10:07 |
Livia Armstrong |
Wonderful dancing as usual Patrick well done. Yes, often think the chicks have a good head start here when they have to self feed with flounders. Good practice as well |
|
10:08 |
Scirocco67 |
Probably good for the digestion too as speed eating is difficult😂 |
|
10:08 |
Patrick Mc Phail |
thanks Vee and Livia! For a moment I thought you meant the fish dancing 🕺 🤣 |
|
10:10 |
Livia Armstrong |
That too Scirocco67 😆 Patrick, your dancing never fails. Never change 🥁🥂💃 |
|
10:13 |
Vee Robson |
😂 True S67. Patrick that would be a sight to see a flattie twerking. |
|
10:14 |
Scirocco67 |
Have you seen Vee, there are 2 Osprey chicks in Norfolk at Ranworth Broad? |
|
10:15 |
Vee Robson |
Yes, I am over the moon for you, history in the making. Fantastic! |
|
10:16 |
Scirocco67 |
I have been up to see, just before they hatched, will go again once summer holidays are over, it’s a lovely spot |
|
10:17 |
Livia Armstrong |
Fantastic news for Norfolk. I hope they continue to spread out all over the place 🥰 |
|
10:18 |
Vee Robson |
What a thrill for you. I am up at Kielder on Sunday so hope to see the chicks from Nest 7 making a appearance. |
|
10:18 |
Scirocco67 |
Suffolk Wildlife Trust have all in place for a translocation project, just there have been holdups for last 3 years, Tim Mackrill is doing a talk in October in Woodbridge |
|
10:20 |
Scirocco67 |
Hope you have a lovely trip to Kielder, sorry they have had a tough season again, for all sorts of reasons |
|
10:23 |
Vee Robson |
Thank you. Yes they have. Thank you for the chat. Lovely chatting again it has been awhile. Must go. Take care everyone and carrying on dancing Patrick. |
|
10:25 |
Vee Robson |
Thank you S67. Lovely to see you again. |
|
10:25 |
Scirocco67 |
Take care Vee, and enjoy Kielder, good to see you |

Could be the same unringed one from 9.38 this morning |
|
15:58 |
Zara |
Hi Scirocco67 ... yes it could be |
|
15:59 |
Scirocco67 |
Good afternoon @Zara |
|
16:00 |
Zara |
15:43:55 Harry leaves the nest |
|
16:07 |
Zara |
Just wound back to 09:38 this morning, that Osprey looked like it could possibly be the Osprey over the nest yesterday at 08:22:33 |
|
16:13 |
Paul & Ruth Boughton |
Thank you for all the ts. I pop out and all the action happens |
|
16:17 |
Zara |
yw Ruth .... I'd just got back home I didn't realise there was an intruder this morning .... thank you Scirocco67 for the ts |
|
16:27 |
Zara |
Just wound back a bit further |

Knunn |
hi all, just checking in...was little Oakley taken away yesterday? |
|
17:16 |
Kristy A |
Hello Ruth, Patrick, Zara, Knunn and everyone! |
|
17:17 |
Kristy A |
I was wondering about that too! 👀 |
|
17:28 |
Paul & Ruth Boughton |
Hello @Knunn and Kristy. Flora gently removed Oakley at 21.50 yesterday evening. Oakley was a brave little Osprey who will always be remembered. 🥰 |
|
17:32 |
Kristy A |
Hello Ruth! Good to know! Good girl Flora! *Thank you*! 🥰🤗 |
|
17:41 |
Paul & Ruth Boughton |
Flora is awesome. As is Harry 🤩🤩 |
|
17:52 |
Kristy A |
*Right*! |
|
17:56 |
Patrick Mc Phail |
nice to see you Kristy 🙂 |
|
18:06 |
Zara |
Hi Kristy Patrick Knunn and Ruth ..... I've just noticed I forgot to mention earlier, that the intruding Osprey wasn't ringed |
|
18:11 |
Paul & Ruth Boughton |
Thank you Zara, got a couple of screenshots which I have posted on Friends., and the Alyth document. Wonder if is a returning Alyth youngster. |
|
18:32 |
Zara |
Could quite likely be Ruth, my gut feeling was that it might be a male, the tarsi looked quite slim, but can't be sure as the camera can distort when close up! |
|
18:38 |
Paul & Ruth Boughton |
I also thought they looked male |
|
18:40 |
Zara |
The Osprey was so close to the cam tbh I really can't be sure either way lol |
|
18:44 |
Zara |
The Osprey yesterday and today flying over the nest, like yourself, I felt looked like a male. I would be interested to hear other chatters take on it |
|
18:45 |
Paul & Ruth Boughton |
Hopefully they will let us know what they think. |
|
18:49 |
Paul & Ruth Boughton |
I have to go out this evening. Hopefully Harry will bring another fish soon. 🤞🙏 |
|
19:15 |
Scirocco67 |
I am wondering if the underwing pattern is not the same on the morning and afternoon intruder |
|
19:43 |
Juniper |
Evening all. First look in today. I'm relieved to see that Flora finally removed Oakley last night. Fly high little one. ❤ |
|
19:45 |
B dreish |
So glad the wee ones had been removed. I was beginning to worry about disease. Fly high Oakley. xxxx. Well done Flora! xxxx 👍 |
|
21:29 |
Vee Robson |
Good evening everyone. |
|
21:30 |
Vee Robson |
All looks calm on the nest. |
|
21:38 |
Patrick Mc Phail |
yes Vee |
|
21:51 |
Vee Robson |
Good evening Patrick. I was just watching Darden on LotL. I wonder what happened to the resident female there? |
|
21:53 |
Zara |
Scirocco67 if you're still here, I managed to get a screen capture of the intruder this morning before it disappeared, yes I would say the underwing pattern is different to the intruder this afternoon |
|
21:54 |
Zara |
Good evening everyone |
|
21:55 |
Vee Robson |
Hi Zara, I did the same as you did and thought that they were both different intruders through underwing patterns. |
|
21:57 |
Zara |
Hi Vee .... yes they did look different |
|
21:57 |
Vee Robson |
I agree. |
|
21:59 |
Patrick Mc Phail |
I don't know Vee. I just know I miss NCO and Laddie LM12 dreadfully. But such is life. |
|
22:00 |
Vee Robson |
It is lovely to watch a nest so peaceful. I follow Glaslyn and it has been so sad this year with no chicks and a new male there. |
|
22:02 |
Zara |
This nest is beautiful to watch and yes Glaslyn was very sad this year |
|
22:02 |
Vee Robson |
NCO, and Laddie are so missed. I was devastated when Laddie was found. and not being disrespectful but NCO is the most beautiful osprey I have ever seen. |
|
22:06 |
Vee Robson |
Flora reminds me of Mrs G. She is a fierce protector and such a loving mother. That's why I came here. It is such a lovely nest. |
|
22:07 |
Zara |
I was heartbroken when Laddie passed away and so upset when NC0 disappeared, especially when LM24 returned from migration so late and then missed NCO after she left |
|
22:09 |
Vee Robson |
Me too. NCO, deserved some good luck. She has had it so tough for the last few years. Wherever she is I hope she has an easier time. |
|
22:10 |
Zara |
I hope so Vee I often wonder where she is |
|
22:13 |
Zara |
I hope LM24 and 210 stay together, she is very beautiful |
|
22:13 |
Vee Robson |
Me too. There has ben so many females on the nest and them disappeared. It has been such a mystery this year there. I hope in 2026, we may see NCO land there and make us all happy. |
|
22:14 |
Zara |
That would be lovely |
|
22:15 |
Vee Robson |
She is from Kielder. I am a fellow Geordie so I am pleased to see her have a chance of a new start. I adore LM 24, he is a keeper. |
|
22:16 |
Zara |
He is adorable |
|
22:16 |
Vee Robson |
He sure is. And very handsome. |
|
22:17 |
Zara |
Yes very |
|
22:18 |
Zara |
The two chicks here are growing so fast |
|
22:19 |
Zara |
Time goes by too quickly |
|
22:20 |
Vee Robson |
Alyth has always been my second nest to go to after Glaslyn. Flora is so beautiful. I also watch Dorcha and Louis they had such a hard time last year. This year thee weather has been kind to them. |
|
22:22 |
Zara |
Louis has done so well this year, I was worried about him last year |
|
22:22 |
Vee Robson |
The* |
|
22:23 |
Zara |
The two chicks there are beautiful |
|
22:24 |
Vee Robson |
Me too. His injury was like a replay of Aran with his injured wing. This year the chicks are so feisty and a joy to watch. |
|
22:26 |
Zara |
They are a real pleasure to watch |
|
22:26 |
Vee Robson |
Flora checking that all is well with her chicks before she settles down for the night. |
|
22:27 |
Zara |
Yes she is a beautiful mum |
|
22:27 |
Vee Robson |
Indeed she is. A natural. |
|
22:29 |
Zara |
I was watching her the other day when it started raining and she was so determined to try to keep the chicks as dry as she could |
|
22:29 |
Vee Robson |
Thank you for the chat it is always a pleasure to talk to a fellow osprey lover. and thank yo for accepting me on your chat. |
|
22:30 |
Zara |
Thank you Vee it's been lovely talking to you .... take care |
|
22:32 |
Vee Robson |
Thank you, Zara it has been my pleasure. Take care. |

Good morning all. |
|
08:38 |
Paul & Ruth Boughton |
Morning everyone. @James Thompson, I haven’t seen Marlow helicoptering, surely we would see that before she fledges.? Think they need a fish. We need Patrick and his dancing shoes. |
