I don't know whether you're all keeping up or whether it's been reported on another thread but John has uploaded lots of photos, here's the link but don't forget to look at older and more recent photos on this link:

He doesn't miss a trick :)

Thanks  lindab  for the link, some truly amazing photos.

Thanks Lyndab. Wonderful collection of photos from the West Africa trip. 

Thanks Lyndab.  Brilliant set of photographs.

Keep checking - John took thousands of photos - to be so close to those Ospreys was just mindblowing:

Some of them are winging their way back ....  :))

Just catching up on more of John's fantastic photos. By the way, I am recording the UK colour ring IDs that he mentions, in the spreadsheet.

In the latest batch, John has also posted photos of a French osprey from the Forest of Orleans, known as "The Male" after the symbol on his orange ring. On receiving the Rutland team's report, Rolf Wahl, who rings and monitors the ospreys on the Loire, has written up the life story of this bird (as known to humans) on his own site.
