New forest (UK) Nest cam

Vulcan58 · 18th of April 2009 (Sat)

Not sure if anyone else has posted this link so far, but I noticed an "AA"(automobile association) sign pointing towards the New forest reptile centre the other day, marked "Birds of prey nest cam".

It's also got sound!!

Here's another:

Ospreys at Loch Garten, Scotland. Good picture but the sound carries a buzz with it.

At night the cam changes to IR, so there is 24 hour viewing to protect the nest from egg collectors. The nest has a 24 hour guard.

Cheers for that link Scrumpy - The Ospreys have eggs visible. (GF swore blind there were chicks!)

Thought I'd just log in to the Goshawk Cam and I see she has 2 eggs visible (when she gets up that is!).
Also, can hear a cuckoo very close by - That would be great to get a shot of one of those.

The three eggs have been have been there about a week, so there's nearly another month to go before you see any chicks.

As of yesterday morning, at least 2 of the eggs had hatched, with a 3rd expected to have hatched later that day.
Been having a look this evening, and could see at least 2 babies in white down feathers.

This has been an amazing webcam (live viewing of course) if anyone has been popping their head around the door so to speak.
Can even here the local Cuckoo again this evening.
UK time don't forget, so if anyone is watching from outside the Uk -you may be watching in darkness here. (Daylight again 0520 UK time).

I saw three chicks yesterday but one didn't seem to be getting much food. The weather is terrible; cold wet and very windy

Vulcan58 · 27th of May 2009 (Wed)

One of the chicks sadly plummeted to it's death during the high winds recently.
However, the other two are doing fine & starting to look really big now.

The osprey is wriggling a lot on the nest just got a glimpse of the chicks, not sure how many. All that fidgeting, makes you wonder if she's getting bored with this brooding lark and want's to fly off somewhere

oo, must check it out when I get home

artyman · 27th of May 2009 (Wed)

The Osprey is supposed to have hatched the 3rd egg yesterday, but just looked at the cam a minute ago when she stood up & it only looked like two chicks and an egg.
The father (Odin) has just brought her yet another Salmon for dinner.
