Thank you Katie. Great fun trying to spot ancient trees when out walking with the grandchildren. Very informative and well presented video. Thank you.

don.t gabble

Hmmm

Why did they have to go to Spain? Was there nowhere in Britain for them?

You all do such a wonderful job, our wildlife needs every little bit of help it can get. All of us need to do our bit, good luck to the chicks in Spain, it will help to save these beautiful birds and enrich their wildlife. Thank you team.

It seems this year nature is taking a bashing. I have no insects in my nature garden, its having a knock on affect for my birds and hedgehogs nothing to feed on. I have never bought so much food for them all, I am seriously worried about our wildlife, not one butterfly to count this year. I wish Louis and Dorcha all the best they give so much joy to us viewers. Well done team.

Absolutely splendid ❤❤❤❤

Wonderful to see them looking healthy. You do such a great job with these magnificent birds. Love watching them.

I can't help but wonder if the stress of trying to feed the 2 Bobs 🐥🐥 and Dorcha 🪶 through the terrible weather just wore Louis out 😐 Now he and Dorcha look much improved 🤩😘

So happy that Louis is mending 🙏 This wonderful couple went through so much this season 🪶

Can't believe I share a name with my FAVOURITE bird!!!!!!!!!

This is bittersweet ❤ The size of that tiny fish, poor Louis & Dorcha, weather has been against them badly this year. Glad the WT took the decision to save the chicks with Roy Dennis foundation & thanks to Fundacion Migres for looking after so many young ones. Safe fledging to them. Already feel anxious for Louis & Dorcha to migrate & return, prayers of protection & good health for them both.🙏🏻

Louis has been building up the rails & doing his housework, it's good to see them together & looking healthy. It was very fortunate that the translocation was happening to save both chicks. Thanks to WT & Fundacion Migres❣

Likes its food delivered, I know a few who do too😂 What great Birds and a credit to our Highland region.

I LOVE THESE THINGS

Was so sad to see this family divided; but the welfare of the chicks is essential… I hope they flourish well in Spain, and hope Louis and Dorcha have further broods; here’s hoping for less jeopardy in the future👏❤️

😢

A great film, well done team!

No idea how Lewis and others get up there 😳😳😳👏👏👏

I cannot put into words what our woodlands do for my soul. Thank you woodland trust for everything you do ❤❤❤

Brill video and presenter, super clear and informative

Grow more trees and stop cutting them down for new builds

amazing so special .thank you ❤❤❤

Have so enjoyed watching Louis and Dorcha this year up until the chicks being moved due to poor feeding.

What a fantastic project! Lovely to see the school's involved too.

Just brilliant to see this! I had no idea of the beautiful tree under the nest and the surrounds, gorgeous countryside. Super job team and absolutely perfect music! Sadly I can't seem to link to the website for chat and updates of fish deliveries etc this year. I get this: The request is blocked. 20240701T002123Z-16b86d94878mnnnz28man3xzrc0000000fsg000000007fgt Any suggestions or solutions welcome :)

Poor Dorcha 😱

Hard working Louis caring for his family.

Beautiful view of the tree & nest 2. Wish the weather would improve for the Ospreys this year. Hail & gale force winds to end of June. Dorcha has proved herself to be a devoted Mum, Louis the best fisherbird ever. 😻🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Beautiful view of nest1. Have noticed it's more sheltered from the gale force winds & hail that nest2 gets often. Still have hopes this nest will be claimed, 2025 now.

Seen many Ancient trees here in Scotland. Some almost dead, but holding a wealth of life. They should be protected.

Poor thing, what atrocious conditions

Is this the video from a couple of weeks ago, when the same happened? Had her tail into the wind then, too.

Hail & winds up to last week in June! Dorcha is so devoted to sheltering the eggs, then chicks, well done Mum.

Goodness, not seen that happen before! Poor Dorcha, sensibly hunkering down over the chicks. It's so warm & calm down here in Oxon, hard to imagine the wind being so strong up there. Glad no obvious harm done to any of the family.

More Katie please!

Thank you for sharing 💞

Beautiful 💜

Nice

Absolutely mesmerising.

Just beautiful ❤

This was great!

This is awesome and I thank you for highlighting the UK's amazing rainforests. However, on the Woodland Trust website it states: 'In the UK Ideal conditions for temperate rainforest are found along the UK's western seaboard, including: West coast of Scotland North and west Wales Devon Cornwall Cumbria parts of Northern Ireland.' Maybe this should now be expanded to include the following, from Guy Shrubsole's Rainforest project website and crowdfunded map, as there are areas and good-sized fragments in: Major temperate rainforest zones in Britain are: Scotland - West Coast Wales - Snowdonia and the Elenydd England - West Country, Cumbria, Yorkshire and Lancashire . Rainforest patches have been found outside Sheffield, South Yorkshire, and in North and West Yorkshire, Northumberland, Derbyshire and also Merseyside, and the zone stretches down through the Yorkshire Dales and into Yorkshire/Lancashire. So all these areas have additional potential. It is far more prevalent than many realise and can exist outside of the recognised zone too.

If you plant fruit trees, it will be beneficial for both animals and humans, as well as the environment, such as cherries, blueberries, etc., which can grow in England.

The ospreys can be very fierce and aggressive..I’ve seen one push,one,out of the nest and also when there’s 3 the youngest doesn’t always make it ..and the mom almost seems relieved
