FEBRUARY - The days may be getting longer, but it is still our coldest month. Just a wonderful month to curl up and snooze until our osprey arrive back in Scotland. - - and Wales and England. I don't know of any in Ireland.
WendyB has recently given us a link to an Albatross family cam which should prove entertaining as we continue our countdown to the arrival of EJ and Odin. With Keith on Bioko Island for he month, he may have a few adventures to share with us.
Let us remember that February is the month of romance, too.
Fat, tell us about the snow at Boat of Garten, as it sounds as if you were there. :)

Following Keith on his journey:
Aberdeen Airport
Zooming in, looking for an entrance and a place to start Streetwalk I find oohh! BUGS! What are they? Helicopters? Mixed up with their own Shadows? Think I'll skip streetwalk and go on to Paris.
PARIS - Charles De Gaulle International Airport - Well about 1/5 of it maybe.
Somewhere in or near CDG Airport
Hello all. Lovely sunny but very cold day! June those albatross chicks are so cute like toys! Looks like they are nesting in someones garden! Something for the great garden bird count!
Love your diplomacy June. People will not change how they feel about Satelite tracking, there was a thread to discuss the issue but sometimes got a little heated.
Willow, I think there are two nests. Here is a picture I took last night. (My dark winter evening, still afternoon in Hawaii.) About 1 0r 2 a.m. in Scotland.
I think this is a second nest, and believe it or not there are three birds in this picture. Two birds were walking about , but before I could push a buton one had stepped behind the other and become invisible.
New blog from Jen.
Thankyou Limpy! Will have a read!
