This Topic has been set up to follow the Spring 2012 migration, and summer activities, of satellite tracked ospreys, excluding Rothes and Tore from Loch Garten, who are followed on this thread.
It replaces this earlier thread, Satellite Tracked Ospreys (non-LG) Aug 2011 - Feb 2012.

Hope Beatrice gets over the mountains to home OK.... She has taken too long on this migration and missed all the good weather.

Beatrice sheltering a few miles north of Dundee:
Sheltering from the snow storm
03 April 2012
A big snowstorm blew down from the north last night and this morning 7am to 10am she was sheltering in a wood a few miles north of Dundee. Last night she roosted a bit to the east near Monikie Reservoir. At her nest today there is 8" of snow with frequent showers - but the sun keeps coming out and it is melting, but I do not think today is good migrating weather between dundee and Moray
Jukka crosses the Med flies over Scicily and on into Italy:
Still an east wind blowing here in Scotland, hope Beatrice makes it safely home today.
Dulas is very close to Nimrods wintering place :
He will be ok there Alan?
Update on Roy D's web-site this morning
"4th April. Beatrice should squeeze round the snowy mountains today; Red 8T reached Isle of Wight last evening. Rothiemurchus still put."
