The Dyfi Project: Posted Friday 26th July 2019 by Emyr MWT

It's been a very successful July fledging window

We've noticed a strong bond forming this year between two youngsters
in particular - the two brothers, Peris and Hesgyn.

In a month's time they will fly south independently and may never see each other again,
but for now, they seem to be the best of friends.

02 August 2019 - Farewell LF15, our beautiful Female Osprey

Our beautiful female osprey, LF15, has not been seen at Lowes since last Sunday. We have been keeping a close watch on the Loch and on all her usual perches and have decided that now is the time to confirm she has left on migration.

Since her two chicks (now large, hungry juveniles) fledged, she had been keeping her distance from the nest, encouraging their independence. She passed her days calmly sitting on her favourite trees preening, bathing in the loch and taking flights to build her strength and gain condition for her own long journey south. Last week, she disappeared from view for a few days and we were on the verge of deciding she was away, but then she returned!

Female ospreys leave the family group first: their part of the breeding season is done. Last year, she left us on 8th August so this is a comparatively early departure. The male, LM12, is still here to provide fish for the two juveniles while they hone their own flying and fishing skills.

What a wonderful season of osprey watching LF15 has given us. We are truly privileged to protect her and watch her tend her growing family during their time in Scotland.

Keep safe LF15 you have done a wonderful job protecting and rearing PT4 and PT5. You will be missed but, rest assured, next Spring we will be eagerly scanning the sky with hopes for your return.

Early evening, another trout was brought in
and 054, 055, 056 and 057 were determined to take the catch –
it was 055 who succeeded!

Blogs - Scrapping for food! By Libby Smith on August 16, 2019

Quote:

The food begging from all four fledglings continues,
when 33 brings in fish, there are tussles between the youngsters.
Yesterday 056 and 057 were scrapping over a large trout.

And then there were three.....Has 054, our eldest fledgling, left on migration?

Quote:

Our three remaining fledglings are enjoying the sunshine at Manton Bay this morning.
Who will be the next to leave on the 4,000km journey to the west coast of Africa?

Quote:

And then there was one.....Our first fledgling 054 left a week ago and now two more of the youngsters 055 and 057
appear to be on their way leaving 056 in Manton Bay with Maya and 33. When will they be on their way?

August 24:

It looks like placid Berthyn has found her feisty side. In the last couple of days we have seen her standing her ground with her brothers, even chasing Peris right off over the reserve. A strong character will certainly help her in the next stage of her journey and beyond. We think she will make a super osprey one day. Do you?

Quote:

August 25:

We have been enjoying a glorious bit of sunshine this Bank Holiday Weekend. Berthyn definitely rules the roost at the moment and is not letting Hesgyn spend any length of time at the nest.

Neither Telyn or Peris have been seen since Friday but we know better than to make any assumptions where those two are concerned...

Quote:

August 26:

Is Berthyn our last chick standing? After being chased away from the nest all day yesterday, we have not seen Hesgyn yet today. Still no sign of Peris or Telyn. Only time will tell if they are on their way south. Last orders at Monty's Fish Bar, it's nearly closing time......

Quote:

August 27:

It's that time of year again when Monty looks forward to the the last few days in Wales by himself. Telyn and two of his offspring have almost certainly departed for warmer climes, leaving just Monty and his eldest daughter, Berthyn.

We had arranged for our telephone and broadband to be terminated on 2nd September, not this morning. Running DOP without Live Streaming, Chat, emails, messages and a working till has been, umm... interesting.

We still have live pictures at DOP, so will bring all the osprey updates to you using a cellular signal from the Obs as often as we can over the next few days.

Thanks again to you all, your support has meant a lot to us on this very difficult day, operationally.

Berthyn still with us, still demanding food. That's about the only thing today that has not changed

Unfortunately we are unable to live stream today. This is due to a miscommunication with our broadband provider resulting in our connection being cancelled early. Both Monty and Berthyn have been on the nest today. We’ll do our best to keep you updated.
