Caledonia
Hatched on 16th May 2012, fledged on 14th July and left Loch Garten on 19th August.
The travels of Caledonia and her sister Alba were first followed in this thread, now closed. Caledonia is the first juvenile osprey tracked from Loch Garten to settle in Europe; she has been living on the northern outskirts of Seville for nearly a year now.
Caledonia’s ring is Blue/White AA1, reading downwards. LG blog on the ringing and tagging of Caledonia & Alba.
I know what you mean Patily - I open to check with a beating heart!

Caledonia and Oighrig are settled, but Breagha has made a big move south, visiting Dakar before arriving on the 29th in the far south of Senegal, near the border with Guinea Bissau:
Rothes spent some time in this area, near Nhiquim, in Autumn 2009.
Breagha heading for Guinea Bissau. Last location in Senegal 21 miles SW of Red8T s wintering place:
SUE C - ALAN P - Thanks for augmenting on Richards Blog. He appears to be in the area of the Casamance an area favoured by many Ospreys.
New blog – Caledonia visits old haunts ….
Thanks Karen. It is good to know that all three are doing so well, and causing us no worry at the moment!
