Osprey project 1
Went to view an Osprey project near Machynlleth but the viewing platform to where the Osprey's were nesting was a full 200 yards from the impressive hide building. But even with 500mm focal length and a little cropping I ended up with a nice record shot only!! The staff kindly opened the window to get a better image but the rain was blowing at times.
Anyway it was worth visiting, there are three "chicks" on the nest one doing practice flying. One parent was off fishing and came back with a flounder ? fish while the other parent was on top of the main camera mast which gave impressive video feeds back to the main building and the hide building.
