Dyfi Ospreys etc

Had a glimpse of the Clywedog ospreys (1 adult & 1 young) then moved on to Dyfi where all 4 could be seen at intervals. Managed to get a pic of Telyn trying to wrap a 6ft branch round the camera before getting to the nest! Why they still do this long after fledging is odd. Sadly it's not much use for photos these days unless one chooses to circle the tower ,or you possess an 800mm lens etc but no such luck-shame they won't perch on the alternate pole any more. Also saw this pale fronted Buzzard en route. Always worth a visit folks.
