Garron Pill Ospreys




Around 1 p.m. this afternoon there were 2 Ospreys at Garron Pill (just north of Lawrenny). One appeared only briefly over the trees. The other spent an hour or more hunting over the mouth of the Pill but despite a couple of dives which it pulled out of at the last second it's efforts went unrewarded.

Frustratingly it never came close enough for a decent photo but some record shots above. Eventually it flew off along Castle Reach towards Lawrenny.

It may well be that these birds were the two that Bob and Annie have seen recently near Landshipping but it would be interesting to know just how many Ospreys are around the Cleddau.
