Story

Usk Valley Ospreys

In 2023 a pair of ospreys built a magnificent nest at the top of an oak tree on Gilestone Farm, on the outskirts of Talybont on Usk. This is the first pair to successfully build a nest this far south in Wales for hundreds of years. The birds returned to the nest in spring 2024 building up the nest, increasing their pair bond but failed to breed in 2024. We expect their return and breeding success from April 2025

Usk Valley Ospreys aims to make sure the ospreys are properly protected and to give the birds the best possible chance of thriving in their new home. Usk Valley Ospreys is working closely with the landowner, farmer and local community to conserve and protect the birds and to promote understanding and enjoyment through publishing a live video feed from the nest.

Usk Valley Ospreys is a formally constituted group and is now a charity.

Please note when making a donation there is an option to leave a "Tip for Just Giving". You can use "Enter Custom Amount' and edit this to £0 if you wish.

    I am the treasurer for Usk Valley Ospreys and also a trustee. I live at Treberfydd House, only a few miles from the nest and close to Llangorse Lake, one of their feeding sites. Prior to retirement I was an economist with the Bank of England and the Financial Services Authority.
