The 2017 season is almost upon us and my first thoughts are of 03(97) / Mr Rutland as he was usually the first back on or around the 17th March and heralded the start of the season.

Sadly 03(97) is no longer with us but it is nice to think of him and smile knowing his legacy will live on as we now eagerly await the safe return of all the regulars and also new returnees.
A safe journey to all.
That is great news Karen. So another pair back together at Rutland. I have no idea where I picked it up, but one of his two chicks from last year over-wintered in Senegal.

3J seen at Glaslyn..nest 2..a short while ago.
Thanks Mike, Great to read that 3J(13) has safely returned and been sighted at Glaslyn.
Such a shame for her last year after pairing with 51(11) at Lagoon 4 and laying her first egg, that they lost their nest to Egyptian Geese.
It will be interesting to see if 3J(13) returns to Lagoon 4 and if she pairs up with 51(11) again.
Does anyone know if 51(11) has returned yet?
51(11) has been seen there Karen.
