Many thanks to all!
One of the first birds of the day was a Long-eared Owl (Asio otus), a first for an Osprey morning. Black-Crowned Night Heron (Nycticorax nycticorax, see photo above by Claudine Waespe, in a classic dawn setting), were seen by at least five different groups. With perhaps the most unexpected observation being of an adult Night Heron carrying a branch in its beak—this species is notoriously difficult to find nesting. Five groups also had good views of Little Bittern (Ixobrychus minutus), and seven observed Purple Heron (Ardea purpurea). At least 103 bird species were reported altogether, a better score than in the Osprey morning of 2 June (undoubtedly due to the better weather). Stoat, Eurasian Beaver and Red Fox were also seen. Great thanks once again to all the volunteers listed below who joined us for a very successful Osprey Morning.
