DID YOU KNOW?
OSPREY Parental duties are shared throughout breeding, typically the male will hunt while the female stays on the nest to incubate and care for the young. what we have at the moment is highly unusual in that the chick from last year, marina, has remained in the nest and is sharing those duties!
The three eggs in the nest. the dirtiest one is the last egg laid.
Come on down for a visit, sit and meditate on our amphitheatre or just wander around our boardwalk. Perhaps you would like to have a BBQ in our picnic area. It is all free to use. We just ask you put the rubbish in the bins provided.
nice fish!
