This is a new thread to follow the travels of these three young ospreys from the Loch Garten nest.
Millicent
This female juvenile is the eldest of the 2014 brood, hatched on 17th May and fledged on 12th July. Millicent’s ring is Blue/White AN0
Seasca
Also female, the second of the 2014 brood, hatched 19th May and fledged on 15th July. Seasca’s ring is Blue/White AN9.

The migrations of Breagha and Oighrig were previously followed in this thread. Contact was lost with Oighrig in January 2014, but Breagha has survived and is living in the tidal creeks of the Casamance river in southern Senegal.
Greatly informative start, thanks SC!

Thanks SUE A very comprehensive beginning
Many thanks SUE C.
I will be following this thread closely over the winter months, and looking forward to news of Breagha's first moves northward in 2015! I know the odds are stacked against them, but I wish Millie and Seasca a safe journey to their quarters for the next two years. It would be wonderful to have a tagged LG bird return to these shores.
