I have had a quick shifty through all the correspondence about the osprey website.....
I think it is no use worrying about it all.....

Hi, Rusty!
I have just been talking to my cousin.

All is well up there, and they are finally rid of their snow!
It is still raining heavily here......but fortunately the thunder has abated.
That is a good thing, else we would have to share our bed with the dog!
She is terrified of thunder!
I am just attempting to finish the ST crossword....I had left it half undone when we went out ......
How is the golf going?

Good morning, Jazzgirl!
Oh, that's interesting!
There are two crows who linger around the nest in summer.
The ospreys just ignore them.
Think they are after bits of fish that have been dropped to the nest floor.
I prefer the view that shows more of the loch.
You often see the ducks and swans on it.
