This is the 2nd year that Henry has returned late to the nest site. EJ always gets there before him - makes a change for the woman to be on time! Anyway last year she had her way with at least one other male before Henry returned and laid a clutch of eggs. Henry returned, had a fight with the male and kicked the eggs out of the nest. EJ and Henry mated but I don't think she laid any more eggs. She just sat on the nest and moaned for him to get food for her.
This year she did it again but this time, while the intruder was seen off, EJ hasn't laid any eggs yet so it will be interesting to see if Henry kicks the eggs out again. EJ and Henry have mated but I wonder if he will be able to tell or if Ospreys are another species that practice infanticide like Lions and (hypothesised anyway) dolphins.
