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.
WOW !!! can't use enough exclamation marks for that, ALAN!!!!!!!!!
Dulas has moved back to near Nimrods wintering site. I must say that I prefer him to be there rather than NE of Quebo where Spey 'disappeared' last year.
Still no word of Nimrod Alan?
Tempo,
Roy posted the following today:
"Despite regularly checking Nimrod's old nest we have not identified him - the nest was damaged in the winter and some osprey added some sticks. The female that arrived late last summer did not show up so we do not know whether Nimrod arrived and moved to a new nest, or failed to come back. If we find him somewhere else we will update this page."
Its such a pity that Rothiemurchus doesnt find the female that Roy talked about that was building a nest in the Rothiemurchas Esate, he has been all over the place, I wonder if he was one of the intruders at the LG nest! we will never know now.

Rothiemurchus continues to roam in Scotland. Update here - he was near LotL on 2 June. There is a note in the LotL blog that an intruder was seem that morning, but no info on the LotL thread on this forum.
AG : This is amazing. He has visited both Loch Garten and Loch of the Lowes now. We learn so much from these tagged birds. Hopefully Rothiemurchus will silence the doubters on tagging.
Thanks AG for the headsup on Rothiemurchus, being an emotional woman I am feeling a bit sorry for him, he certainly is all over the place looking for a mate, hope he finds one soon, even if its a bit late for this year it would be good for him for next year.
DULAS : Seems more settled near the Rio Cacine. Looking good.
EINION : Very settled at Langue de Barbarie:
Taken from Facebook. This is extremely interesting:
