Egg No3 just been laid but there is BIG NEWS coming your way very soon...

Breaking News

Despite perhaps, the somewhat unwelcome news that 5F has laid an egg which is probably Aran’s
we now have perhaps one of the most exciting bulletins for a long time.

Last night one of our volunteers spotted a male osprey land onto 5F’s back. The bird was ringed on its right leg.
Who was this bird? Our volunteer thought she could read a number 3 – could it really be? Was that an R next to it?
If it was a 3 and an R it would be Gwynant – born at Dyfi on 8 June 2014 to Monty and Glesni.

Wind back the recordings, no recordings at the protection site!
Get to the visitor centre – scroll back – patience, excitement – here it is – YES it is him – a Welsh male returned to Wales.

As a youngster he was a very determined and feisty bird – from what we’ve seen so far he’s lost none of it.
Aran was at the PC nest as he landed. Gwynant stood his ground as Aran rapidly departed!

Gwynant remained in the area for most of the evening – although he hasn’t been seen this morning that doesn’t mean he’s gone –
watch out for more updates and a video this evening.

Congratulations, Llongyfarchiadau to Dyfi.

A crow stole the egg.

She made the classic mistake. She went after a crow forgetting that there are more than one of them.

She can make up by laying a fourth egg
