RUTLAND OSPREY PROJECT 2020

picture in the Telegraph today of I think Blue 28 or it could have been 25 fishing in the Horton Mill area of Rutland

I see the new webcam page - pictures are much bigger than the small ones we had last year.

S1 continues to make good progress - now in central Spain

4K still to make a move.
