When I popped today I found no ospreys. So I waited… and in about 15 minutes Dad arrived with a half eaten fish…. No chick came screaming in so he perched in a tree and started eating the fish. And after every bite he looked around, perhaps looking for his offspring! It wasn’t very long before I heard the desperate food begging of a chick as she zoomed in to their other favorite tree perch. Her crop was quite full! Dad finished off the fish and departed, probably to get another fish for you know who!
Looking ahead at the weather forecast it looks like temps will drop and the winds will shift next Sunday or Monday so that may be when we have to say goodbye to our friends who have provided so much enjoyments these past few weeks. I will visit them as often as possible in the final days….
