When I checked last week the old nest site was still dormant. This particular pair was not successful in raising any young last year, but have been in previous seasons. Today the Osprey were back and active around the nest.
After I arrived it was the female who showed up first.
Then the male flew in and there was some mating behaviour.
After which the pair posed nicely together with the female calling. Then it was back to work refurbishing the nest.
Unfortunately for the female,
… the male lands on her with a fairly large branch.
He did make amends several minutes later bringing her a fish.
