Building the Bird Hide

We have been visited by Ospreys regularly between April and early September for the past ten years. We have visits from various ospreys up to 8 times every day. They hang around until they catch a fish, usually from our settlement ponds.

We were visiting friends in the south of England, and they told us of a photographic experience they had enjoyed in a similar situation. We decided that allowing photographers and wildlife enthusiasts to view and photograph Ospreys would be a good idea.

It has taken us about six months from the inception to the realisation of Project Osprey!

Below you can see photographs of the hide being built.
