This is the beginning of a running thread of the off-season LG Nest Observation Thread until EJ's return next Spring. She may be on holiday or perhaps she is taking a leisurely route with long layovers, investigating nearby territories. God speed her to her wintering grounds and back to our eyes in 2018. With a bit of luck and good timing, EJ the Wise and Magnificent could oust the youngsters CT6 and apparent beau Twiggy from taking over her property.
Please post any notable observations here in the off-season. For more of this season's information on this nest, please see BNN's DU Summaries for 2017.
Photos of EJ fishing on July 14th (last day she was seen) at Aviemore Lochan, posted on FB by Dave Joicey, perhaps taken by Lynne Joicey.

You and your dicky birds - LOL!!!!!!
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Hello guys,
new blog coming out today about what osprey sightings we've had in the last week.
If anyone managed to get any decent photos of the buzzard of the camera tree, could you please upload one so I can put it up online?
Many thanks,
Blair

I should have something, Blair, don't know about "decent". I'm just starting to go thru from 0800hr.
I've emailed these to Jess - as said, "in haste". Its beak didn't show up well in some better views, but I've got more to look at closely yet.
