[Unidentified osprey pays a visit to the nest]

Unidentified osprey pays a visit to the nest

Posted on March 28, 2011 by lotladmin


We’re excited to let you know that within the last two hours an unidentified osprey has paid a visit to our nest.  At around 12.10 pm today, an osprey popped up in view, landing on the nest for a few short minutes before taking off again.

Unfortunately, as the visit was so brief, we are unable to make a positive ID.  However we are hopeful that it could have been our resident female osprey, known by many as ‘Lady’, because the bird did not appear to have a leg ring.

As always, we will be watching over the nest and we hope to make a positive identification of any bird which arrives and then proceeds to take ownership of the nest, occupying it for a prolonged period of time.

Lovely slide show - and just look at those fuzzy chicks!

Excellent, Ei! Thank you so much!

Several times during Earth Hour, I got the "Twitter is overloaded" page. Apparently, the energy that was saved by turning off lights was used to tweet about it.

It's an ill wind, Shaky...

Hmmm...is there a tweet delay today?  Sure looks like Beauty at the nestbox since like 8:35...

Don't ask me... (Still cleaning...)

I turned my lights off, but I didn't turn the computer off

I turned mine off and forgot to turn them on until 10:15....all is good!

Uhhh... so... what were you doing??

Umm....learning my iphone of course! 

Makes sense to me... esp since Rod learned how to surf the net on his phone before he learned how to make calls!! Me? I do not need to know the latitude of Buenos Aires or the temperature in one of the 'Stans... I do not need to know how to translate from English to Urdu... I just need to make a phone call!!

We want eggs! We want eggs! (Don't we?? It's not too early, is it?)

Soon, Bobbie, soon. I'd say by the end of the week we'll be pushing along with her!

Yaaaaaay! Sure hope something happens before I head for home on the 4th... after which my internet connection becomes decidedly iffy... Anyone able to help me make the required wireless connection? I am a doof.
