Two Osprey were seen at Lough Beg. There was also an excellent count of 27 Ruff in the area. (David Steele). The 2 Ospreys were still present from 7.15, but one Osprey flew off half an hour later (south) and the other Osprey stayed until last light. The best views without disturbing them is on the Ballydermot Road. (Ciaran Burns)
