This was one of my last posts on the very sad 2019 Season which is a summary of what happened.
All we can hope for is that the unringed female returns and also the male KR3 she was bonding with last season. There is still a little part of me that hopes to see the return of Green BF though.

Darren has posted a tribute to Green BF on the Balgavies Loch Facebook Page
The loss of both EJ and Green BF has been a blow this season. All we can hope for is a better season next year.
A lovely post by Darren and his wife.

Some wonderful photos of Green BF from Darren - Green BF was such a great provider, watched him bring in a good few fish.
Farewell dear Green BF, you did good son! the really sad thing is the not knowing what happened to him, we never get closure. One little part of me cannot let go so next year in the Balgavies hide I will be waiting for a miracle!

Good Morning All
Craig has very kindly sent me a lot of photos he took of KR3 in the Eden Estuary, Fife, which we know is also a haunt of both Blue YD and Green BF, I find it interesting in itself as I wouldn't say it was right on Balgavies doorstep. It is approx. 24 miles away, probably closer as the Osprey flies
So I will post a couple of photos each morning, by the way his name is Craig Ward, Ramone was a Facebook name.
