11th July photo - still no ospreys!

Steven & I tackled another geocache this afternoon which took us down on a long river walk to see the osprey nest from a different direction. We were really hopeful of spotting them today after our disappointment yesterday - but still no luck! We could see the nest quite clearly but it remained stubbornly empty.

This is a photo of the nest in the background - along with the monitoring cameras. Sorry its rather distant.


However the surroundings were quite beautiful. We had a very long walk because the ospreys nest cannot be sited in a populated area - so it was nice & remote and the hills looked gorgeous. This may be my photo of the day.

But I am also tempted by this cheeky one of Steven. He felt a sugar craving half way though our walk and he was not surprised to find a bag of sweets in my walking bag!

Pity the ospreys weren't at home today, but looks like you got to visit some gorgeous countryside none the less.
