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.

Looks like KR3 has taken over the Balgavies nest, there has been no sign of Blue YD today, all I am bothered about is knowing that he is safe, I hope and pray that he will be seen at some of his usual haunts.

Darren was at the loch yesterday for 6 hours, no sign of Blue YD at all.
He sent me some fabulous photos of the two mating on a branch.
