New Book

Just to let you know, there is a new book out!


Ospreys In Wales - The First Ten Years

Forward by Iolo, selected images by Andy Rouse, and it's the story of the recolonisation of ospreys in Wales (obviously!) from the first successful breeding in 2004 all the way through to the end of this 2014 season.

It is a thick hardback book with 272 pages and 300 photographs. Available locally at Cors Dyfi this weekend (signing 12:00 - 14:00 Saturday and Sunday) and online:

Profits split between Dyfi and Glaslyn osprey projects.

Cheers
Emyr
