As there has been a sighting of an Osprey at Bassenthwaite, I thought it would be a good time to start this years thread.

Very appreciative of that info , thank you Tiger. Reasonably seasoned than (thankfully). I look forward to his eventual arrival back here in the UK
Another update on White 14, he reached the Pyrenees on April 6th, making good time.
Thanks, Chrisy, Hope the rest of his trip is uneventful and he arrives home safely!
Kind regards, Ann
HERE IS THE BLOG that mentions WHITE 14's Roost in the Pyrenees on 6th April, he should be well on his way home now.
Shame about the tawny owls eggs.
Does anyone know if they are intending to stream the nest Live, I haven't been able to see the nest this season yet, maybe it is a different link now.
I don't know Mary, I have tried a few times but it's just a whirly same as Aberfoyle & Tweed Valley. I think Aberfoyle goes live at Easter so maybe the others are the same.

Thanks Starling, yes they all seem to be using the same streaming system, you are probably right, they will start up then.... (hopefully)....
More news - White 14 was approaching the N coast of France on the 9th, so not only a couple of days till he is in Cumbria!
It says on the ospreywatch news site that they hope to stream the nest camera once birds are established, so hope will be soon.
Thanks Chrisy for the latest on White 14. Brilliant news.
