In response to the demand for an osprey chat thread I am now making one for September 2011. I guess there will be quite a bit to chat about given the success of the extension thread.

Rutland ospreys have 4 September, LG only 1 Sept. *throws a tantrum* >:(

All for one and one for all.

Vespa You make fascinating points as always. It had not occured to me that this is the first example of a son and grand children being tracked at the same time.
As you know there was some liason between 9 (98) and the site B female in recent years. It is interesting that 9 (98) decided to cut up rough this year. It really reminded me of what happened at Loch Garten in 2004 when an unknown female (some speculate that it was Olive) repeatedly bombed EJ on the nest and broke the first egg.
LOL ChloeB
bring it on... the symptoms are more than welcome.. I just adore these birds
Unknown said: JSB, is it possible he followed the ferry...I was looking at his track, the Hull Zebrugger ferry also follows that sort of direction.. did our clever boy catch a lift? Tiger, I'd no idea that all this has been going on, it's wonderful.. you have a mine of information.. S8H, 2001!!! my mind boggles..

We have heights in metres and dates only, although the satellite collects much more on the upload, from the bird. Fform memory Bynack had some fixes about the height of a ferry deck, but also a 1 and a 2 metre height fix, just above the sea.

You might want to zoom in on Bynack's tracking coz the little so and so has headed a wee bit North 2nd September
At least thats what comes up on the lower tech RSPB map :)
A very old Shropshire Lad.
Spring watch this year showed loads of birds on a north sea boat, catching a lift.. it's not beyond comprehension that our boy did the same

Vespa You are right about things progressing. A once or twice a week offering which was often more about custard creams than ospreys. Bassenthwaite went down that route for a time too. When you read the diary it was hard to find out what you wanted to know i.e what were the ospreys up to.
