The Glaslyn Ospreys in Snowdonia are the most succesful recorded in Wales. The Glaslyn estuary is designated a Site of Special Scientific Interest with its riverside habitats of floodplains,grasslands and woodlands.Many of its rare and interesting plants and birds are recorded at our Viewing Centre.Since 2006,a Community Interest Group made up of volunteers have raised funds to establish a Viewing Centre. Our main objectives can be summed up:-
To protect an area of unique and irreplaceable qualities and to ensure that breeding ospreys and other wildlife thrive. To benefit and educate children,the viewing public and support the local economy.
We are now seeking funding of £4000 to employ an Education Officer to work 2 days a week during the operating season. Involving local children,young people and family groups to give knowledge,confidence and enthusiasm.
