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

We keep records. See green J
Oh, are they? Green J's chicks - is that a 1st joke late TIGER . They were never sat tagged were they
Remember Green J was tracked in 1999, 2000 and 2001 too.

Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Blue XD nearly home.
He just about flew over me...why was I not looking up :-/ ;-P
He must surely be home by now.

Guess so. Not far from MadChester to Bonnie Scotland ;-)
BLUE XD is home, and has been checking out Loch Garten.
