All the HISTORY of Balgavies Loch Ospreys can be found at the start of the 2019 THREAD.
It is a SWT Nature Reserve near Forfar, Angus, Scotland. There is no webcam on the nest, and there is no Visitor Centre, only a small Hide with limited car parking spaces.

The nest failed in 2020 and 2019 but the new male KR3 and Unringed female were seen at the nest last season, so lets hope they both return this season and are able to occupy the nest before the geese take residence.

Hope the male and female get back safely.
Thanks Mary for the new thread also links and images. Here's wishing KR3 and his unringed mate a safe journey home.
Patily the Unringed female is still referred to as Mrs. BF on the Facebook Page.
Of course we have to wait and see if they return.
Kind regards, Ann
