Satellite Tracked Ospreys (non-LG) Aug 2012 - Sep 2014

Thanks Alan found that report very interesting.

Thank you Alan, as Mary says a very interesting report from Rob Bierregaard.  Ouch, poor Clutch.  I often wonder how many birds get tangled in debris or netting hidden beneath the surface.

Thanks Alan and hope one makes it back to four yrs. I know Hellgate Mercury in the water could cut an Ospreys life short and look forward to the lab results evenually?

Sheila Baling twine is a terrible hazzard on nests. Ospreys seem to like lining their nests with it and they get tangled and for the very fortunate few they are rescued if they are lucky.

B&B There is a report from the Dunrovin site about Ozzy and Harriets egg, and others unhatched along that stretch on FB. The result inconclusive, nothing stands out regarding pollution from Mercury or anything else.  Other factors could be the answer... eg temp' and parental care. I did always see someone sitting when I looked in on them.

No results announced yet on Hellgate, they ask for patience, as they have lots of work to do and will let everyone know as soon as they can.

Thanks Alan for the report, I have seen pics somewhere of the osprey which was impaled and body recovered, while ago, wish I could remember where!

I think these are the links you may be looking for.

Data coming in for BlueYD. Looks like he has left the Senegal river and headed down the coast again.

BlueYD looks to be roosting in a wooded area.

Thanks SPINNEYGAL the 2nd link was the report I saw, so sad looking at what was a beautiful osprey.

Alan, thanks for the update and pic for BlueYD
