RUTLAND OSPREYS - 2014

Can anyone read the number?  I can only see 25 and that was a female, wasn't it?

Morning all Thanks SCYLLA for the vids Is that a new mate for Mrs?I still keep my fingers crossed for 5R but I also hope Mrs doesn't spend the summer alone

25 (10) and11 (10).....Glesni's brother ....surprised everybody by having a successful nest last year at Site C

I think it is 28 (10) as he is the only male around as far as I know. 

You just beat me to it Tiger :)

OK, so now Rutland are saying that Mrs 5R has been joined by 28(10) on the nest in a blog just posted

EDIT: oops SNAP Vespa! I looked at the photos from earlier and the ring definitely looks more like a 25 than a 28 in the shot on here. I am confused (STILL!)

28(10) arrived on the Manton Bay nest on 28 March, and was briefly seen with 30(05) here. He's a Rutland B bird, fathered by 03(97)

Just bringing this post down to highlight choco's excellent analysis. 

I agree.Just very difficult to get these 25's and 28's sorted on camera shots.

You beat me too it TIGER I looked closely and was coming back to say I think it is a 28.

Which nest was he from?

I've come here late (but have excuses, this damn video is hell to navigate and I've been having an argument elsewhere ;-) ) ... to say "I think it's 28" - thank you Becky Raine for pointing me to the blog I had ignored.

Glad the experts agree!
