Just right click on the ospreys' page, select "create shortcut" and you will have an icon on your desktop to look at anytime.....

Thanks for this link LENSMAN. I check in on OJ and OVS every day. I've seen OVS delivering a fish, and caught EJ scaring off an 'intruder'.

The first egg is due to hatch around 25th May, if I remember correctly.

I too have been enjoying the Ospreys ,but its a shame the sound has gone down as it did add quite a bit to the experience.

There is lots going on at the nest right now, another osprey is coming back and fore to the nest

[dessie]

what a great site.i like it very much......

[highlander]

Tonight at 5pm, was thrilled to bits to see both ospreys on the nest, daddy osprey had done his duty and took a fish to mummy, hecks she devoured it, then so gently fed some to the chick, fantastic viewing!!

[highlander]

There is now two chicks hatched, if you click on to that site right now you will see them getting fed.

[highlander]

I have myself working my housework watching the osprey, running back and fore, there is now three chicks, at the moment the other osprey has taken some food to the nest and all chicks are getting fed.

[Moira]

Highlander, I was lucky enough to catch the chicks being fed today, while enjoying my own lunch. The proud Mum then tidied up, tossing all the fish bones etc. over the side of the nest. Great stuff

Moray Firth Radio reported the story of the three successful hatchings throughout the afternoon. A spokesman from Loch Garten said that they were all delighted at the interest shown by bird lovers throughout the country in the safe arrival of the chicks. He also said that they have been unable to determine the sex of the chicks yet but all should become clear soon. Apparently the female chicks develop bigger feet than their male counterparts! I've learned something new today.

Sound is back on which makes it even better. I was lucky enough to catch a feeding the other day.

Great link. I'm not into watching birds to be honest but find the webcam facinating.

I was watching the nest between 3 and 4 in the morning, British time, and it was such a treat to hear a cuckoo which was obviously very close by. I had not heard a cuckoo in years. I used to hear them all the time when I lived there but I don't hear them anymore -- at least not when I've been there, usually during the summer months.

Are there many ospreys in caithness?? i have seen them a few times fishing up here but only in the same place, are there a few sites to see them??

thanks
