news about Aeron Blue Z2 and Blue 014

https://www.facebook.com/BywydGwylltGla ... 6845013224
We've just received the following message about the Pont Croesor nest from Friends of the Ospreys. This is great news for ospreys in Wales.

Repost:
Some very EXCITING news from the Pont Croesor (PC) nest.
Over this last week or so there has been a pair of Ospreys at the nest, they have been nest building cup scraping and making themselves at home also copulating, so it is looking really promising for this new pair.
The male Osprey is Blue Z2 who hatched at a Welsh nest in 2017,
In 2020 he was on another nest on the river Mawddach but it was not successful and was a little late in the season that year,
The female Blue 014 who hatched at a nest in Scotland in 2018 and was translocated to the Poole Harbour Osprey Project in Dorset by the Roy Dennis Wildlife Foundation. Blue 014 was seen in Wales in 2020 and as a translocation Osprey it is wonderful news she has chosen the Glaslyn valley as her home just like another translocation Osprey Ochre 11(98) who did all them years ago.
All you Osprey followers know how sensitive this nest is with Blue 5F having many failed attempts on this nest due to the polygamy scenario with the male from the main nest, Blue 5F has now settled down on another nest. The delay in posting this information is to give them both the best chance possible for a successful season, the Visitor’s Center at Glaslyn has been closed due to the pandemic and will reopen on Monday 26th April and will be posting about this nest.
I have informed Paul Morton from Poole Osprey Translocation Project and Tim Mackrill from the Roy Dennis Wildlife Foundation and both are excited about the news.
Darren,
Friends of the Ospreys.
Below is a photo of 014 at the time of ringing
Thank you Paul for the photo, also Z2 nest building at Pont Croesor.

Brenig Osprey Project partners woke up this morning to the worst possible news. Last night, at 21.42, someone took a chainsaw to the osprey nest and felled it. This is a fast-moving situation and we’ll issue more news of the birds when we can – please, please be kind to Dwr Cymru/NWWT staff this weekend as we work out how to respond to this horrific act of vandalism.

For a start – if you have any information that can help us identifying the individuals responsible, please let us know or contact the police with crime reference 2059734.

The woods are lovely, dark, and deep,
But I have promises to keep,
And miles to go before I sleep,
And miles to go before I sleep.

We are now half way through the incubation period and Mrs G has been sitting tight all day, sheltering the eggs from the torrential rain and strong winds. At least there hasn't been more hail like yesterday!
