A new pole. 12/10/21 Update

Update 12/10/21

The Brenig Osprey Project was devastated by news of the vandalism of the osprey nesting platform earlier this year. A pair of ospreys had established a nest and laid its first egg the day before vandals cut down the structure with a chainsaw under the cover of darkness.

Today, Openreach and GT Williams Ltd are kindly replacing the pole for free on behalf of Dwr Cymru Welsh Water and Brenig Osprey Project partners North Wales Wildlife Trust . The new nesting platform – made by Anglesey Fabrication Ltd – will be winched in later.

A big thank you to the team who came on site today to complete the first stage of re-erecting the nesting structure.
