RUTLAND OSPREY PROJECT 2019

Fabulous news that all 8 breeding pairs have safely returned to the Rutland area as well as some of the singles. But I do wish Rutland Osprey Project would release more information about all of the nests, not just the Manton Bay nest.

Update on 4K and S1

We may live in hope Ann...…..!

Do we know when 30(05) returned

The short answer is no we don't have a date for 30(05)s return. I find it difficult to understand why ROP satellite tracking page is so out of date, there not much point in it at all.

She was in France on 21 March. And she is one of the breeding pairs reported back on the 5th April. So somewhere between those dates.

Also some confusion about the bird(s) seen fishing on 30th March - that's the date I'm using at the moment

Thank you DAVID I think we all share your frustration Either was, so glad she is safe

Short update from Marie -   "Safe Landing"   advising us that the tracking pages are in the process of being updated.  She also tell us that all the three tracked birds are back in the UK with 4K arriving last week with S1 and 30 returning a while before. 

Blue 2AA , the son of Blue 28(10) is back!!!

and a little more info in another tweet from River Gwash quote

"2AA, 28's son has made it back from Portugal making an appearance at the Trout Farm last night."

I can only assume that he has been sighted in Portugal over the winter for them to know where he was.

Thanks KAREN Its always cheering to hear of youngsters returning What a great bird 28 has turned out to be
