00:28 Christine A The video is fantastic. Great moments. Wilko aces his landings. The one on Kasse’s back - too sweet. Kasse looked like she wanted to join her brother. In due time girl. 🥰
00:49 Patrick Mc Phail bless you Renie 🙏

01:49 jewel lang Good morning all.... on the obs board it says 18:08 Kasse is away.18:12 Kasse in with Mum..... Did she fledge too???
01:54 jewel lang Oh, and thank you Bart!! I missed Wilko's fledge, and just saw it on your video!! Great first landing, and all.... I'm soooo glad I got to see it!
02:11 Bart Think Kristy meant from the feeding jewel.. she hasn’t fledged
02:11 jewel lang (Hahaaa, looking back, I see "away" doesn't actually mean AWAY..... not sure what it means, but no way could Kasse fledge at this point.....)
02:12 jewel lang Hi Bart.... yes, whoopsie! Wilko, however, is maybe the most controlled fledger I have ever seen!
02:12 Bart He was very controlled.. and good landings too
02:13 jewel lang He did have a lot of practice.... 😉
02:20 Merritt Placido Kasse still needs hovering practice
02:39 Kristy A Hello Bart, Jewel and general hello to everyone! Yup!!

02:42 Patrick Mc Phail Ruth 👍
02:42 Patrick Mc Phail Elizabeth G
02:42 Janet Fullerlove Wonderful news about Wilko! Have been ill and away and such lovely news to come back to. Kasse next? Have they been ringed? If so were sexes of both Wilko and Kasse confirmed - he did look smaller
02:42 Janet Fullerlove Esp when he landed on her back during his fledge hours! Hilarious! She shrugged him off!
02:42 Patrick Mc Phail and obviously anyone else I missed!
02:43 differentc Wilko Male Kasse Female @Janet Fullerlove
02:43 Patrick Mc Phail looks like all 3 having a pre match group huddle
02:43 differentc Wilko has Pink and Green @Janet Fullerlove
02:44 Patrick Mc Phail 😆
02:44 Janet Fullerlove Thanks @differentc Well that rather matches their names doesn't it! Lovely! One of each.
02:44 Patrick Mc Phail but beautiful 😍 all the same!
02:44 differentc and Kasse has White and Red
02:44 Patrick Mc Phail Wilko pink and green, Kasse red and white
02:44 Janet Fullerlove Super fledge that.
02:44 differentc No Problem🙂
02:45 Janet Fullerlove Delighted to see both these young ones make it this year - I think the FF/hat fairy has made a difference.
02:45 differentc I Agree, It Does @Janet Fullerlove
02:45 Patrick Mc Phail indeed Janet
02:46 Patrick Mc Phail oops, back to my perch. TTFN 👋
02:46 differentc TC @Patrick Mc Phail
02:46 Patrick Mc Phail 👍
02:49 Janet Fullerlove Is that trackers that the young ones have on their backs?
02:49 differentc Yes
02:49 Janet Fullerlove Only just seen them on rewind on closer shot
02:50 Janet Fullerlove Is that something new?
02:50 Janet Fullerlove How do they fix those on? Around their girth? V interesting.
02:50 Janet Fullerlove Not seen this on the POole Harbour lot
02:50 differentc Like a Harness
02:50 Janet Fullerlove Wow
02:50 differentc From What I've Heard
02:56 Kristy A Hello Different, Patrick. Yeah, a harness.
02:57 Mary Ball so the baby fledged and come home to eat? pretty smart..
02:57 differentc Yea
03:14 Valerie @Janet Fullerlove Poole Harbour have never tracked their chicks
03:27 MEGABOY MEGA BOY what up birdie's 🦅🐣🐧
03:27 Marie Bernad Our little boy is growing up. Way to go, Wilko!
03:40 Diane Smith hello @ Janet Fullerlove, the trackers are expensive and unfortunately Poole doesn't have funds for that.
03:58 Karyn Good morning PLO and viewers. Checking in to see if mom is on her fishing perch yet. I think we will have a big day today. BBL
04:01 differentc GM & TC @Karyn
04:03 Janet Fullerlove @Diane Smith Ah ok... v interesting - not surprsied they're costly.
04:12 JoSiEmPre58 yes Karyn we are ready for big wings and Wilko spectacle
04:21 Karyn Yes, Josie, got my ticket early! LOL Hi differentc, Janet, Diane Marie and I am sure Barts here somewhere too.
04:27 Kristy A Hello Karyn, Marie, everyone! Yeah.
04:27 differentc Hi Karyn
05:02 Renie Current Weather: 13°C/57°F. Clear. Wind SSW 6 mph, Gusts 8 mph. Humidity 74%. Today's High 21°C/71°F. Water Temp 18°C/64°F. Tide: High 5:48 AM/Low 1:51 PM[2tides]. Breezy and pleasant.
05:03 Renie First Light 5:37 AM//Sunrise 6:06 AM.
05:34 Karyn 5:16 Mom leaves nest. Kids up and about.
05:36 jewel lang Morning Karyn.... I wondered where Mum is, it's her prime fishing time from the perch
05:39 Karyn Morning to you Jewel. Yes, but didn't go to the perch. Wondering if on the ropes or old barge. Headd to ropes but saw a bird head to the old barge from the right.
05:39 jewel lang As usual, a lot of guesswork.... lol
05:40 Karyn True. going to be aa fun day.
05:40 jewel lang 😁
05:44 Patrick Mc Phail is this the day Kasse takes to the skies as well?
05:45 Tiger Mozone Morning everyone
05:46 Tiger Mozone @Patrick Mc Phail I very much doubt it. At 1.9 kg Kasse is a very big bird and femal
05:46 Tiger Mozone Kasse could be aother three days or so
05:47 Karyn I doubt it. 2 days at least and probably more...But I was a good full day off on Wilko.
05:48 Karyn I do think she made tom=ns of progress yesterday, however! Do you agree Patrick.
05:48 Karyn TONS
05:50 Gtr Kitarr Hi all, Kasse is 3 days youinger, hope (and think) she stays on the nest practicing the next few days
05:53 Sylvia good morning PLO! Let's see where Wilko is going today.
05:53 Gtr Kitarr Hi Sylvia
05:54 Sylvia hi @Gtr Kitarr !
05:56 Karyn Only day 2 so hope he remains VERY close. Bet the camera will follow and look as much as they can. GM Gtr and Sylvia.
05:56 differentc Hi @Sylvia, Gtr
05:57 Gtr Kitarr Hi Karyn and diff
05:57 Gtr Kitarr 5:55 wingers
06:01 Sylvia hi @differentc @Karyn
06:02 Gtr Kitarr Think the wind is not as strong as yesterday, Wilko trying to get some lift
06:02 Bart Wilko trying to remember what he did yesterday
06:02 Sylvia I can imagine it takes more courage to make a flight over the water
06:02 jewel lang I was going to ask who is who on the nest.... but now I know😉
06:02 Bart It seemed so easy…
06:02 Sylvia he's like...why doesn't that work today 😃
06:03 Gtr Kitarr Think yesterday was more hovering helicoptering using the wind, now he has to do it himself if he wants to take off
06:03 jewel lang Yes, he mostly floated yesterday.....
06:04 Gtr Kitarr Hi Bart and Jewel
06:04 jewel lang Hello Gtr!
06:04 Vivian Steele He floated very nicely though
06:05 Gtr Kitarr Hi Vivian yes, great controle going form perch to to ropes to nest
06:05 jewel lang Such control for a fledger!
06:06 Sylvia he did really great and seemed to enjoy himself
06:07 jewel lang Yes, I love the utter joy they exude when they are finally free of the nest
06:10 James Happy 9 weeks Wilko! 🎉
06:28 Gtr Kitarr Hi James
06:28 Gtr Kitarr 6:24 old barge and sunrise
06:29 James Hi Gtr
06:29 jewel lang Hahaaa, so fierce, these two!
06:30 Gtr Kitarr 6:29 Mum on perch, Dad at the mancave, Mum takes off
06:39 JoSiEmPre58 6:36 wilko found a leftover snack
06:39 jewel lang 6.38 Wilko finds a snack.... He was sure there was something there, has been digging for a while
06:40 E. B. How beautifully they are illuminated by the sun,
06:46 jewel lang I wonder, is that Mum fish calling from behind the cam? Or the kids?
06:51 Bart Sounds more like the kids to me
06:52 jewel lang Yes, and it's quiet now.... she would still be going I think
06:55 Kristy A Yeah I think so too.
07:08 Mary Ball so the one that fledged, came back to the nest?
07:12 tree Hi Mary, Fledged from the nest to the perches yesterday. Looking forward to seeing the flight across the sea today
07:26 Trish E Mum in with fish? 07:21:30. Camera skipping - unable to confirm...
07:31 JoSiEmPre58 definitely she is feeding both kids
07:32 Anne Rolfe @Mary Ball they won't leave the nest completely for a while yet, probably not until around February
07:34 Kristy A Oh nice!
07:37 Trish E Wilko gets the tail at 07:36:10
07:37 Liz Hi all! Gtr mentions wingers at 5:55/5:56, can anyone tell which chick is on the edge of the nest doing wingers and hovering?
07:39 differentc Hi Liz
07:39 Liz Hard to see in the morning light.
07:39 Trish E Wilko. Kasse's tail feathers have more white.
07:40 Liz Oh ok thanks Trish 😊
07:40 Kristy A Hello Liz, Trish.
07:41 Liz Hi Kristy
07:41 Trish E @Liz easy to compare at 07:40. Good morning @Kristy A !
07:41 Liz And Differentc!
07:41 Liz Ok thx Trish, I'll take a look.
07:42 Kristy A Thanks. You too. Oh she sees Dad.
07:44 Liz Oh yes, Kasse as a little bit more. I'm guessing they're called baby feathers since Mom doesn't have any...
07:44 Trish E A helpful guide in low light!
07:46 Kristy A Yes.
07:56 Kristy A Get another Mum!
07:59 Kristy A What is that Wilko?
08:02 Kristy A Helicopter Kasse! Do it!!
08:02 Patrick Mc Phail has mum delivered again?
08:02 Kristy A She fed 1 fish.
08:02 Patrick Mc Phail I saw they were eating earlier
08:02 Kristy A Oh.
08:02 Patrick Mc Phail oh, thanks Kristy 😊
08:02 Kristy A You're welcome Patrick!!
08:04 Patrick Mc Phail I think kasse may need another day before she lifts off!
08:04 Patrick Mc Phail just my opinion, I truly hope I'm wrong! 🤣
08:04 Kristy A Yeah Patrick! lol
08:05 Patrick Mc Phail but we don't want a fludge
08:06 AMW I agree @Patrick. She needs more height and control with her helicopter lifts and little more confidence.
08:07 AMW I’ll give our princess a few more days.
08:07 Kristy A Yeah.
08:08 differentc Yeah
08:08 Patrick Mc Phail 👍
08:09 AMW Kasse has come on leaps and bounds (flaps & jumps) over the past 24hours. Watching Wilko will help with her confidence..if he can I will.
08:09 JoSiEmPre58 Wilko: mum, this is my new spot
08:09 Patrick Mc Phail I was just about to say that !
08:09 Kristy A Yup. And lol
08:10 Patrick Mc Phail Wilko already flying will definitely motivate her
08:10 AMW most definitely @Patrick..sibling encouragement
08:11 Patrick Mc Phail 👍
09:02 Tiger Mozone Morning everyone
09:03 joseph trotter UCkszU2WH9gy1mb0dV-11UJg/G8AfY6yWGuKuhL0PlbiA2AE
09:03 differentc UCkszU2WH9gy1mb0dV-11UJg/G8AfY6yWGuKuhL0PlbiA2AE
09:12 Tiger Mozone At 1.9 Kilos Kasse is no lightweight. She will be quite a while later
09:21 LJWJ My sound has gone again 🫤
09:36 Kristy A Hello there Joseph, Ljwj.
09:43 LJWJ Hi Kristy 👋
09:52 Vivian Steele No sound again?
09:53 Vivian Steele I will guess that's frustrating for Fran and Bazz and Bart anr the people trying to make it work.
09:55 Grace Loves Fashion wow the chicks are grwoing so big!
10:05 Trish E 10:03:50 Mum brings a fish!
10:05 Vivian Steele Wilko got the fish
10:12 Vivian Steele Wish mum would have went for another one.
10:15 Trish E @Vivian Steele I thought that maybe it was from the FF - wasn't a floppy one...
10:18 Vivian Steele I don't see another one coming, I doubt they would only leave one fish?
10:18 Trish E Think she caught it from the perch: she took off at 10:02:03 after a quick triangulation.
10:26 Karyn Thanks for the TS Trish E. Didn't see it on the board.
10:28 Steve M yeah, strange. Calm waters, no boat wash, don't think it was the FF
10:30 Trish E @Steve M and Kasse didn't pancake either! But for a freshly caught fish, it didn't appear very lively...
10:31 Keith Rainwater Poor Kasse didn't get anything to eat, like it when moms take the fish away and feeds them anyway
10:33 Merritt Placido yeah. kasse Keep calling
10:35 Fran & Bazz Not a FF fish so that’s two for Mum this morning.
10:36 Fran & Bazz FF will drop some shortly because we are heading out for a couple of days
10:37 Keith Rainwater Good to know Fran thanks
10:37 Karyn Wilko finishes mom's catch 10:36:19. 33mimute feed.
10:38 Gtr Kitarr @Fran & Bazz rthe audio seems to have stopped already again, could you please let the tech know?
10:39 Karyn Wilko still playing with a bit of it. Thank you Fran & Bazz. Bring a special big red one foe Kasse.🥰
10:39 Gtr Kitarr and @Fran & Bazz is there a way for Bart to get in contact with the local tech if you and Janet are both away?
10:47 Fran & Bazz 😡😡 sound is.a pain. Will let him know! We have a lot of fish here but quite small and wee probably won’t be back for a couple of days
10:48 Gtr Kitarr Thanks @Fran & Bazz
10:49 Karyn Mom is doing fine, maybe Dad will get going too if they all yell loud enough.
10:49 Gtr Kitarr at 10:02:24 & 10:02:35 you can see Mum fly with the fish
10:49 AMW Cool to see Mum fly with fish.
10:50 Trish E Great TS's @Gtr Kitarr!!
10:50 Karyn I sometimes thing parents circle the nest a few times until the fish stops kicking.
10:52 Fran & Bazz All watching hard to sneak in
10:53 Gtr Kitarr think they sometimes also circle to find the best way to land against the wind
10:53 Karyn Sounds good to me Gtr.
10:55 Karyn 19:53:30 Mom off. Kasse not pancaked.
10:55 Gtr Kitarr Not much wind at 10:03 though 😉
10:55 Kristy A Hope you can sneak in! Thank you Fran!
10:56 Fran & Bazz Took the first one to the old barge

11:02 Merritt Placido there we go
11:03 Gtr Kitarr 11:02 Kasse want ans gets a bit and I think Dad lands on the ropes behind the nest

11:46 Kristy A Hello Rob.
11:48 differentc Hey Rob

11:49 pardalote wilko off
11:49 Steve M woohoo!
11:49 pardalote 11:49 Wilko off again :D
11:49 Kristy A Oh nice!
11:53 Joy Luczkovich Hi Diff
11:54 Karyn And 11:49:35 Kasse flappy away with excitement.
11:54 Karyn Guess we all wonder if he left the barge.
11:56 Karyn PLO is a zoom out possible since Wilko flew off somewhere?
11:59 Trish E ICYMI - Fran & Bazz will be away for a couple of days (& so is the FF...), so until Bart is awake, we probably won't get a different view...
11:59 Karyn Too bad the trackers don't track in "real time". 😆
11:59 pardalote yay! thank you!
11:59 pardalote perchy boy :D
11:59 Fran & Bazz Just going to leave camera wide in case I lose coverage
12:00 pardalote ❤ Thank you Fran
12:00 Karyn Thanks Fran.
12:00 Vivian Steele There he is
12:00 Kristy A *Thank you so much*! See ya around Fran.

12:00 Vivian Steele Thanks bunches Fran
12:00 pardalote @Sandra Paul Wilko
12:01 Sandra Paul THANKYOU
12:01 pardalote ❤ He's a champ!
12:01 Karyn Glad he remains local for now.
12:01 Kristy A Wilko fledged, Kasse on nest.
12:01 t vulture GE everyone - so glad he is wandering around a lot. Won't be too long for Kasse, I imagine.
12:02 Sandra Paul Kristy A THANKYOU
12:02 Kristy A Hello T Vulture. You're welcome! Yeah.
12:03 Steve M @pardalote perchy boy,😂
12:05 Karyn After spending all his living hours looking from the nest. Must seem so different looking at it from the perch. A new world.
12:06 Kristy A Yeah!!
12:07 Steve M Yeah, i love how Wilko and Kasse are looking at each other😍
12:07 pardalote 😍
12:07 Karyn she is getting big ideas.
12:09 Karyn She has been very focused on the water also, the last two days.
12:11 Karyn 12:10:23 Wilko watches mom fly and land on the nest.
12:14 Karyn 12:12:30 Kasse staring into the water and triangulating...she sees dinner. 😂
12:16 Kristy A Aww Kasse. Yeah. lol!
12:17 Tiger Mozone Hi everyone
12:19 Karyn Great work on the board Kristy looks current and busy with mom's 2 fish and FF too. Good work!
12:19 Kristy A Yeah. *Thank you* Karyn! *Much appreciated*!
12:20 Tiger Mozone No chance of of now how

12:22 Tiger Mozone @PandaFanSuzanne Welcome
12:23 Kristy A Hello Panda! Good to see everyone. I appreciate ya too Karyn!!
12:27 PandaFanSuzanne hi @Kristy A
13:53 Lisa Belson They sound incredibly smart!
13:54 Lisa Belson We're all chill here at the barge. Wonder where dad is 🤔
13:58 Karyn Fishing, we can all hope.
14:00 PandaFanSuzanne that is quite possible
14:01 annem1959 earlier summer Finish nest baby could linger the first flying all most one day, flew another tree and so on.
14:05 Me Jesse good eye, Chris
14:17 PandaFanSuzanne looks like Wilko is back (14:16:03) - on the perch
14:17 differentc Hi Wilko
14:17 annem1959 now Wilko is back😊
14:19 PandaFanSuzanne Wilko on the nest at 14:15:36
14:21 Karyn 14:.15:36 Wilko flies in on to the nest then takes off and almost knocks mom from her perch then lands on his perch 14:16:03.
14:24 annem1959 are they both get any fish today from Mum or Dad?
14:24 aeb4kats Hi all, did Wilko actually leave the barge? No obs board yet so can't check
14:25 Karyn Don't think so aeb4kats. Think he was behind the cam on this barge.
14:25 differentc aeb Hi
14:26 PandaFanSuzanne @aeb4kats There is an Observation Board - you can find it under the stream (under more...)
14:26 aeb4kats Okay, thank you!
14:27 PandaFanSuzanne but for now it is hard to know where Wilko was when we can't see any other areas
14:27 Karyn annem1959 2 fish from mom and 4 from fish fairy.
14:27 aeb4kats I know Panda, can't see it yet since stream rebooted
14:28 PandaFanSuzanne 8 December - there are 6 feedings (lots of food)
14:29 aeb4kats Found board again, it just wasn't visible for me like usually is
14:30 PandaFanSuzanne it can always be found under the stream (if you click on more)
14:30 annem1959 @aryn thanks for answer. I am from Finland and just woke up, clock is here 5:59 am.
14:31 PandaFanSuzanne good morning to you @annem1959
14:32 Karyn FYI everyone. Fran& Bazz left town for a couple of days and took the FF with them. Dad needs to step up .
14:32 PandaFanSuzanne And where I am it is 11:00PM Saturday Night so I am going to go and try to get some sleep. Take care everyone.
14:32 PandaFanSuzanne @Karyn I have faith in Dad (and Mum) to deliver - Wilko and Kasse will both be fine I think.
14:33 annem1959 @PandaFunSuzanne thanks😊
14:33 Karyn 14:32:30 Dad flies into mancave.
14:35 annem1959 @PandaFanSuzanne good nite and sweet dreams for you😊
14:38 PandaFanSuzanne thanks @annem1959
14:40 jewel lang Love how Wilko tracked that sea lion as it swam away....
14:43 annem1959 a couple of days Kasse will gets first flying.
14:43 jewel lang Yes, she will.....
14:44 differentc Yep
14:45 Kristy A Thank you for helping everyone. Right.
14:49 annem1959 good for Kasse that Mum stays close to the nest so she won't be alone at the nest.
14:53 Lisa Belson Hello @annem1959 and I agree! 🤗
15:14 Carolyne 🦅🦨 hi everyone!"which one is on the right perch?
15:14 pardalote wilko
15:14 Carolyne 🦅🦨 Ty
15:15 Carolyne 🦅🦨 kasse hasn't fledged yet?
15:17 pardalote not yet
15:17 Liz @annem1959 Someone on this chat told me that the mother or father are always nearby keeping an eye on the chicks.
15:18 Carolyne 🦅🦨 okay, well it's my bedtime. just checking in on the osplets. And hoping they get lot's of fishy. BBL. 👋
15:21 annem1959 @Liz it probably is and that's a good thing😊
15:23 Liz 👍
15:24 Gtr Kitarr Hi all at the moment Dad is on the barge, you can just about see his head at the bottom of the screen at the mancave (pile of sticks on deck)
15:27 Gtr Kitarr Nice to have the sound back, thanks @Local tech!
15:31 differentc Hi Gtr
15:35 Gtr Kitarr Hi diff
15:35 Gtr Kitarr 15:35 Mum back on the nest
15:39 Kristy A Welcome back Gtr!! Yes thank you technical guy!
15:40 Fesseha Habte Hi everyone
15:41 Kristy A Hello Fesseha. Love seeing all 3 of them.
15:41 differentc Hi Fesseha
15:47 Fesseha Habte this is the only place, I came to chat or just to see , positive people , how do I find you after Osprey season
15:50 differentc You Can Find Me at Moorings Park
15:50 differentc or Captiva Eagles and Osprey
15:51 A S Don’t get fed much
15:56 Gtr Kitarr Hi Kristy and Fesseha
15:58 differentc No problem
16:00 jewel lang Uhoh, haha, I think our little Wilko is feeling stuck up there on that perch..... This flying thing is still so new!
16:01 Rob Sin We have to stay positive, in these times.
16:02 Fesseha Habte I love IT. only 60 days to fly,
16:14 Gtr Kitarr 16:12:36 Wilko from one perch to the next via hovering above the nest
16:15 pardalote now he's just showing off
16:15 Gtr Kitarr haha
16:15 Anna Amatnieks lol
16:16 Gtr Kitarr Mum takes off just before 16:15
16:31 Bart Link to observationboard: https://portlincoln-osprey.com/portli...
16:34 Kukelke Hi Bart, for some reason the link to the observation board gets a time out. Has been like this last 2 or 3 days. Retrying doesn't help. Any ideas?
16:36 Kukelke What I mean that when clicking the link it just won't load
16:36 Bart Hi Kuk.. I don't know.. Might do a hard refresh (ctrl-F5 on most browsers)?
16:36 Kukelke Done that too, re control-F5, to no avail
16:37 Kukelke Even started browser anew
16:37 Kukelke Perhaps just a glitch in my browser (FireFox)
16:37 Bart Strange.. Works for me.. on all different kind of browsers
16:38 Bart And typing portlincoln-osprey.com?
16:38 Luyolo Mhlauli Same here works just fine on my iPhone
16:38 Kukelke Just tested, doesn't work for me in the Edge browser either
16:39 Bart I remember trish saying she had some security issues with https...
16:41 Kukelke Perhaps router needs restarting. I'll try that
16:41 Bart Can you try https://www.ospreycam.net/
16:41 Bart And then port lincoln..
16:43 Bart 16:43:20 Mum joins Dad in the mancave
16:44 Kukelke That's odd, doesn't work either
16:46 Kukelke I suspect router settings or firewall settings got altered here after an electricity outage a few days ago. I'll look into that later. Thanks for trying to help 🙂
16:47 Bart yw
16:51 Kristy A Hello Bart. I see Wilko's back in the nest. And Mum's on the man cave. Never see her down there. lol
16:51 Trish E @Kukelke As @Bart mentioned above, Firefox wouldn't open the Obs Board for me, many times - citing 'security issues'. Eventually it came good (after x2 unexpected internet supply crashes) - I opened
16:52 Trish E it in Chrome, and copied the link to Firefox, and - have bookmarked it!!
16:54 Kukelke Thanks @Trish E - I'll try that if it continues
16:54 Bart Thanks Trish
17:10 Kristy A Mum. lol
17:18 LJWJ Is that Mum telling Dad to go fishing?
17:25 Kristy A I think so.
17:47 Kristy A Anyone there?? I shall see everyone tomorrow.
17:47 Gtr Kitarr Good night Kristy, hi all
17:49 mi kra Hi. The Observation file won't open for me on Edge or Firefox.
17:49 Kristy A Hello Gtr and thank you! Appreciate that. Enjoy watching. Go Wilko!
17:50 pardalote obs opens for me on Firefox
17:50 Kristy A See ya Pardalote...
17:50 pardalote oh! Hi Kristy, bye Kristy! ❤
17:51 Kristy A Thank you. Enjoy.
18:07 Anna Amatnieks I only use Chrome and opens no probs.
18:11 Gtr Kitarr 18:03 Kasse joins Wilko on the other side of the nest
18:11 mi kra The prepared link should open in every browser, not only Chrome
18:14 Gtr Kitarr 18:11 Wilko lies down in the middle of the nest
18:19 pardalote @mi kra it opens fine for me, I use firefox
18:21 mi kra For me neither on Firefox nor on Edge
18:31 Anna Amatnieks all 4 close to each other on thr barge!
18:32 yamyow morning all. just viewing Wilko having a trip off again. maybe he wants a boy cave like his dad. 😂
18:32 pardalote @yamyow lol~!
18:38 LJWJ Is that mum on the perch?
18:41 Rob Sin Works for me on Firefox.
19:11 PropertyTribes The video of Wilko fledging was wonderful. You could see Kassie thinking "Hey, I want to do what my big bro is doing!". Did anyone else notice that they both PS'd when they lifted off? Nervous?
19:17 Liz Hi Gtr, has Kasse been practicing any hovering or helicopters?
19:18 PropertyTribes @Liz Yes, she has. She practiced while Wilko was fledging!
19:18 Liz Sorry I meant in the last day.
19:47 Gtr Kitarr Hi @Liz at around 13:23 Kasse did some hovering, moving a stick
19:48 Gtr Kitarr No real helicopters yet I think
19:51 Bart 19:18 mum leaves the barge
20:03 Gtr Kitarr Some TS: Fish at 7:21 & 10:03(Mum) & 10:56(FF) At 12:59:41 sea lion! 13:16 Wilko goes behind the cam. 13:21 - 13:23 Kasse hovering moving a stick. 14:15 Wilko back. 16:12 from perch to perch.
20:04 Gtr Kitarr At 16:43 Mum joins Dad at the mancave. 18:03 Kasse lies next to Wilko, 18:11 Wilko lies down also.
20:09 Sian P Thanks for the TS Gtr and Bart for the fledging video ,Missed it all due to power cuts from the storm ,Great to be able to catch up
20:12 Gtr Kitarr Hi Sian thanks, hope all is ok
20:13 Liz Oh good thanks Gtr, glad she's getting a little practice.
20:13 Gtr Kitarr Hi Liz she starts at 13:21
20:14 Liz Thx, I was just going to take a look at it. She doesn't seem to be practicing as much as her brother was in the few days before.
20:19 Gtr Kitarr of course they need enough wind to get lift to hover/ helicopter, Kasse 3 days younger and girls usually take some more time to start helicoptering
20:19 Liz And she doesn't hover high. I like how her mom keeps an eye on her the entire time she practices. you can see her mom at the right bottom corner of the screen watching her before she goes to the perch
20:19 Liz Just wonder where her brother is at that point
20:20 Liz Oh that's right it was windy. She's making an effort though 😊
20:20 Gtr Kitarr He went behind the cam, probably somewhere on the barge, don't think Wilko flew over the water yet
20:21 Liz And dad, is he close by or does he go far away to look for fish if you know?
20:23 Gtr Kitarr Don't know how far goes to fish, maybe @Bart knows
20:24 Gtr Kitarr how far Dad goes*
20:24 Liz Ah ok. I'm guessing that as soon as the chicks can dive for their own food is when they leave the nest. I think you said still stay in the nest for a month or so after fledging.
20:25 Liz *they stay
20:26 Gtr Kitarr They will probably leave the barge at the end of january or February
20:26 Liz Right ok.
20:27 Liz It will be interesting to watch them trying to dive for food, if the camera shows it anyway.
20:28 Gtr Kitarr of course when they can both fly they will start to make loger trips exploring the area so we won't see them all day, maybe only with fish deliveries on the nest
20:28 Gtr Kitarr longer trips*
20:29 Liz I see, Yes I guess we're lucky those few times we could see them diving for fish.
20:29 Liz *we were
20:29 Liz The parents I mean! of course
20:30 Gtr Kitarr watching young Osprey dive and catch fish is very rare but we have seen it here before
20:31 Liz Wish I could keep watching this peaceful scene but the sandman's calling 😔
20:32 Gtr Kitarr Good night Liz, gonna say goodbye as well, tc and syl 👋
20:34 Liz Of course there's some action, hard to get away now...
20:35 Liz Ok bye tc
20:35 Liz Syl 💤
20:38 Sian P 20,35,17, Wilko flies to perch
20:41 Valerie 20:40 to nest to perch 🙂
20:41 Bart 20:40 Kasse winger sizing
20:41 Valerie and again nest to perch
20:43 Valerie Wilko loves that flight nest perch
20:43 Sian P Wilko enjoying himself ,Flying back and forth
20:43 Bart 20:30 mum back, off 20:34
20:44 Rob Sin Look what I can do..
20:45 Bart 20:44 dad in mancave, mum on the ropes
20:45 Bart 20:40 + wilko going back and forth to the perch
20:55 Liz Okay had to check back in and can't help but notice that it looks exactly like Wilko is teaching his sister.
20:56 Liz And patiently, but I could be dreaming 😀
20:56 Liz May be done with exercises for the day though.
20:59 differentc It's Good to see Him Doing it so Frequently.
21:01 Liz He's definitely in control, but there isn't much wind I guess. Looks like they're down for the evening.
21:02 Liz Me too, bye👋
21:04 differentc Bye Liz

21:35 Patrick Mc Phail Hi everyone ☺
21:36 Patrick Mc Phail I just noticed the Osprey Court Street sign! on ropes to the left! Wonderful to see such humour combined with nature 👏 always a good thing 😀
21:37 Patrick Mc Phail apologies to the right
21:37 Patrick Mc Phail and glad they were all fed again. Possibly a Kasse take off day tomorrow 🤞
21:39 differentc Hi Patrick 👋
21:40 Patrick Mc Phail differentc 👍
21:41 Paul & Ruth Boughton Hello everyone. Thank you Patrick, I had noticed the Osprey but couldn’t work out the other bit.. As you say lovely to see nature and humour combine.
21:41 Patrick Mc Phail hi Ruth 👋 glad you agree 👍
21:41 differentc Hi Ruth
21:42 Patrick Mc Phail of course facts and statistics are very important but a little humour goes a long way in bringing nature closer to people's hearts. Bringing it to life, IMO
21:42 Paul & Ruth Boughton Hello @differentc
21:43 Paul & Ruth Boughton Yes Patrick, it helps beginners engage and not find chat hostile and daunting
21:44 Patrick Mc Phail anyway, just checking in, gotta dash, back soon to see these sleeping beauties! 😴
21:44 differentc Good Point Ruth
21:45 Paul & Ruth Boughton 21.43 good to see all the family on the barge. Bye Patrick👋
21:45 Patrick Mc Phail Totally 👍
21:45 Paul & Ruth Boughton Thank you differentc and Patrick. 👍
21:46 differentc 👍
21:48 differentc TC Patrick
21:51 Paul & Ruth Boughton The night heron is looking hopeful. The blue light must be making a difference, I don’t recall seeing the night heron last year. Or maybe I just don’t remember 🤣
21:59 Steve M hi everyone. the ropes were looped lower last year so you couldn't see the water. PLO wrapped the rope tight around the rail when they cleaned the barge.
21:59 differentc Hi Steve
22:00 Steve M anticipating mum dad or the kids fishing the blue light. didn't account for the heron!
22:00 Paul & Ruth Boughton Hello Steve. Yes that would explain it. I remember the ropes being looped lower
22:00 Steve M hi diff, hi Ruth 👋
22:03 Paul & Ruth Boughton 22.01:54 Dad to man cave
22:03 Steve M Just thought I'd pop in before bed. Another action packed day on the barge. Enjoy the night shift 😉
22:03 Paul & Ruth Boughton Always good to see you Steve, sleep well 👋
22:04 differentc GN Steve
22:05 Steve M gn. see you all tomorrow
22:07 Paul & Ruth Boughton Well my coffee is finished, back to the chores SYL 👋👋

22:46 Gtr Kitarr At 16:43 Mum joins Dad at the mancave. 18:03 Kasse lies next to Wilko, 18:11 Wilko lies down also.

Mon 09 Dec 2024

Age (chicks): Wilko : 64 days, Kasse : 61 days
Fish count: Mum: 0, Dad: 0
Fish times:

Sun 08 Dec 2024 video archive

Age (chicks): Wilko : 63 days (9 weeks), Kasse : 60 days
Fish count: Mum: 2, Dad: 0, Sup. Fish: 4
Fish times: 07:21, 10:03, 10:56 Feed times:  
07:21 Mum's in with a small breakfast fish! Mum (S,Whole)
07:21 1 Mum feeds. Wilko tried to take it. Short breakfast fish. Wilko gets the tail.
10:03 Mum's back in with a whole fish! Mum (L,Whole)
10:03 2 Wilko snatches it from her. Mum flies off of the nest. Wilko will eat this fish.
10:21 Wilko does a stance at Kasse and she steps back.
10:36 Kasse goes up to Wilko wanting a bite. Again Wilko warns her off!
10:56 Fish Fairy delivery! Unknown number of fish. They probably wont be back for several days. Sup. Fish (M,Whole)
10:56 3 Mum brings the First supplemental fish into the nest. Kasse eats with her, Wilko's not interested. Mum eats the fish tail.
11:02 Dad can be seen with a fish he took below the nest on the ropes.
11:12 4 Mum's in with the 2nd supplemental fish, a little more than just a fish tail. She ate the head before bringing it in. Kasse joins her, Wilko watches but doesn't get a bite. Mum eats the fish tail.
11:23 5 Mum's back with a 3rd supplemental fish. She ate the head again before bringing it in. Kasse joins her. Kasse gets the fish tail.
11:27 Dad can be seen taking off from below the nest.
11:43 6 Dad's finally onto the nest with the supplemental fish he took. He ate most of it so only a bit of fish tail. Wilko joins Mum. Mum eats the fish tail.
11:49 Wilko leaves the nest again!
11:59 Camera zooms out and we see Wilko on the far, right branch!
16:43:20 Mum joins Dad in the mancave

01:17:37 In a rewind the findings are: 23:55;38 Mum moves the branch, and the attached material takes a formation. Vegetation is most likely the answer to the mystery.
