Afon Teifi Osprey

 Whilst we were home from the caravan a juvenile Osprey had been frequenting the St Dogmaels section of the River Teifi on a feeding 'stopover' during it's Autumn migration to West Africa.

I had hoped that it would still be around for our most recent visit and I was not to be disappointed, I saw it fly up river from the watchpoint at The Graig footpath just north of the Ferry Inn and decided to check to the river from the slipway near the Fiat car dealership just off the main road.

On going back to my car I bumped into Stuart Hall and Tommy + Jen Evans who had been searching near The Moorings, we soon made it to the slipway and were joined by Karen Leah and her friend.

The bird had landed in the trees on the far bank of the river but was always out of sight, eventually after about 30-40mins it was harassed by some gulls and flew right over us enabling all to get great views and pleasing shots............
