The Glaslyn nest had a visit from a returning two year old yesterday, the first we have identified this year. Blue KC8 is a male hatched in 2020 at the Friends of the Ospreys BM nest, also in Snowdonia.

Although Glaslyn born Blue 8C (2014), has been resighted several times since 2017 in both Senegal and in the south of England at migration times, we have never known where she spends her summers or whether she is breeding.
Yesterday she was seen intruding at the Loch of the Lowes nest in Perthshire, so perhaps she has a nest of her own in the area?
Thank you to Dr Tim Mackrill and Raz at Scottish Wildlife Trust for keeping us informed.

Two different male ospreys have intruded at the Glaslyn nest in the past week and it was a first resighting of both birds involved.
Blue KC8 hatched in 2020 at the Friends of the Ospreys BM nest, also in Snowdonia.
Blue 403 hatched in 2019 at a confidential location in Cumbria.

We have seen several intruding ospreys in the Glaslyn Valley recently. Most of them have been males, but this particular visitor to the Pont Croesor nest we thought might have been a female, due to the size and the dark chest and underwing markings. There appeared to be a ring on the right leg, but we were unable to identify the osprey.
Wonder who she was?

What a difference a year makes.
It is one year today since Aran returned to the nest without a fish, looking depressed and fatigued. We will never know exactly what happened to him that day, but it is fantastic to see that he made a full recovery and has another chance to raise a family with Mrs G.

Ospreys love to bring big sticks to their nests. In recent weeks both Aran and Blue 014 have demonstrated very differing methods for delivering sticks.
