This is the moment that a trio of osprey birds were caught nesting together in a love triangle.
Footage captured by Forestry and Land Scotland shows the three birds - two female and one male - sharing a nest of four eggs at Glentress near Peebles in the Scottish Borders.
Experts have said that the behaviour exhibited is “very rare”, with the two females even sharing incubation duties.
“The only tension witnessed so far has been on the arrival of a fish delivery from the male as the two females both make a grab it,”, said Diane Bennett, a Tweed Valley osprey project co-ordinator.
Observers have said the egg hatching will only add more intrigue into how the polygamous relationship functions.
