I have just had a look at Sanibel cam and I see an Osprey has arrived. No idea who it is - is it Ripply from last year or a new bird. I remember last year finding a facebook/blog page about this nest but for the life of me can't remember what it was so can't compare images from last season, so if anyone else can remember......
In the Inverurie Herald yesterday, an article about the Lochter nest.

News from Kielder ospreys here
Beautiful chicks!
Fantastic weights at Kielder. Great credit goes to the Glaslyn males fishing skills. 3 more chicks with transmitters, I make that 7 in total this year.
Thank you GS. Great report from Kielder.
Birdies LG DU update.
A great report and what stunning looking chicks
Yes the Kielder chicks are all HUGE! Very informative blog as always from Joanna.

Some good news from Tweed Valley link Here
We now have confirmation about the leg ring on the male bird and have discovered that yellow 8C is a bird which fledged from our number 1 ‘back up nest’ in 2004, in the Tweed Valley Project Area.
Also a juvenile from the back up nest from last year has been photographed on a beach in Spain this summer.

I think that this is the blog you mean. See New Screen Stars are a Hit
Good news from Ireland too.Another Borders bred osprey has been spotted this summer over in County Wicklow in Ireland. This bird, bearing the blue Darvic ring CL1, was ringed in 2012 and his safe migration to Ireland really is very good news.

Yes Tiger I tried twice but for some reason I kept doing it wrong, that's why I finished up writing the main points :)
