Thought it sensible to create a new thread where we can keep each other abreast of which Ospreys have returned to the Public sites. Please don't post any information on non protected locations
32/05 has now returned to Rutland as well as 03/97
Good morning Pipsar6 pretty sure Eric has arrived and the female seems to have 3 names, sometimes called Mabel, Marge or Madge. So pleased she has company at long last, has had a long, cold and and lonely wait.

Sorry all in my excitement I seem to be posting thngs on the wrong forums. I really wish I wasn't going out today, going to miss so much, especially as it looks as though Eric has returned at LOTL.

Thanks Pipsar6 good to see them getting down to important things. I am sure it is Eric.
and another... Eric has either hopped up on to the Cam or flown off, not sure as I didn't see...
Glad to hear that Eric has returned, after the females long wait.

I did not think it was Eric. He is ringed green 8.
Ooh er! Thanks for that, hazelwoods. Looks like Marge has got herself a toy-boy!
