THE Dyfi Osprey Project has great eggspectations that the first chick of the 2021 season will hatch later this month. The Machynlleth-based project, the brainchild of the Montgomeryshire Wildlife Trust, celebrated the arrival of its first egg last month, laid on the morning of April 12. And now, expectant parents Idris and Telyn are waiting for their offspring to arrive, which project organisers predict will be from May 18 onwards. “Telyn and Idris are exactly halfway through incubation at the moment,” the Dyfi Osprey Project announced on its Facebook page on Monday. “We re eggspecting the first chick to hatch sometime from May 18 onwards.”

Ospreys Idris and Telyn arrive in mid Wales
Funding was announced in 2019 but its construction and then the pandemic has seen the centre near Machynlleth unable to welcome visitors for 20 months.
The nature reserve has been best known for its family of ospreys.
But last month there were new arrivals in the form of beavers, released into the wild by naturalist and television personality, Iolo Williams.
The Dyfi Wildlife Centre, run by Montgomeryshire Wildlife Trust, was awarded £525,000 to improve the visitor experience at the popular nature reserve.
Visitors are able to watch cameras trained onto the osprey next and walk around the reserve.

THE Dyfi Osprey Project is celebrating the arrival of the first egg of the 2021 season. Laid this morning just before 10am, the project confirmed the arrival for Idris and Telyn on its social media page. Telyn the osprey returned to the project s Machynlleth-based nest last month, with new mate Idris, and it is hoped there will be more chicks to hatch this summer. The Dyfi Osprey Project project began in 2009 with the aims of supporting and conserving the osprey population in Wales and delivering an osprey project with communities at its heart.
