I guess that Blue XD is now set to be part of Loch Garten History. He deserves a page by himself.
Do people have data on his exact arrival time and some videos and pictures.
There has been a blog regarding him here on 28 Mar 2012 5:56 PM
There is still confusion as to his identity but he is said to be the long term partner of Green J or otherwise known as S06
So Blue/White XD may be S18 but there are certain problems with that.
S06 and S18 also parented a chick translocated to Rutland viz. T04
I wrote about Green J here on 3 March 2012

Well no. Green J was hatched in 1991 while Lady was setting up nest. See Green J here
Thanks Tiger, So Lady could have been 2 or 3 years old when she was setting up in 1991 at LOTL, so they really do not know how old Lady is then for sure!

Something about an Odin card! I guess shares in Odin Merchandise as on the slide today!

Yes you are right. No one really knows what age Lady is. Her minimum age is probably 24.
A grand old lady then as is Green J.

She winters in Spain.
Oh really, I hadnt picked up on that. She is another Beatrice then! Talking about Beatrice she seems to be taking her time on the journey home.
