Latest Sightings
Yesterday 2 Osprey were seen on the nest via our live screen in the Visitor Centre. One could have been our usual male (Yellow 80) as it had a yellow ring on but we didn't get a positive ID on the ring number. The other looked to be a new female. We will have to see what they do, but it's probably too late for them to breed this year.
