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.
LG blog on the ringing and tagging of Millicent & Seasca. Their younger sister Druie is not tagged, but ringed Blue/White AN8.
Breagha
A male from the 2013 brood, hatched 28th May and fledged on 19th July. Breagha’s ring is Blue/white CF4.
LG blog on the ringing and tagging Breagha and elder sibling Oighrig.
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.
Sue, I hope you see Breagha. When did he leave France on his first migration south? He hung around for quite a while I seem to remember.
Kind regards, Ann
He was in the area from 1st September - 4th October 2013 - obviously long enough to develop an attachment to it.
Thanks, Sue. Sounds like you may well have a chance to find him if he sticks to tradition!
SueC A new thread for Breagha would be great. Hope you manage to get a sighting when you visit the area.
Good Luck Sue in spotting Breagh, if you do manage to do so what a thrill it would be for you, but also for everyone here too.

Good luck Sue and enjoy your holiday.
Birdies LG DU update.
SUE How exciting I hope you see him That would be unbelievable!
I think it will probably be too much to hope for, unless the park is open so I can walk from the chateau to the ponds, and he happens to be there. All the same, there are a lot of trees.
Will start a new thread later.
New thread is open now
