The 2012 Loch Garten season started with disappointments. Then we lost the baby in traumatic circumstances. Then in October we lost the second of this year’s chicks, Alba.
So now in November we look forward to following the adventures of our one surviving tracked LG youngster, Caledonia. She apparently left home to move to the city, where she has been exploring city life. Will she become a city girl or will she eventually pack up and move on to Africa? They say you can take the girl out of country, but you can’t take the country out of the girl. Many hope she will stay in Spain. We shall see.
We will be following other tagged UK osprey as well as other birds and wildlife as interesting nests or stories become available.
Also during November we hope to have another Music Night and our third StreetWalk.
Hi B&B , My Robin still comes every morning and afternoon when I go to feed him. He is on the pic by my name. I named him after my late son " Colin" I go and feed him every morning. Hope he will be ok while I am in Aus, LOL LOl
Fish, lovely to see you and hope you are on the mend.
He will be ok friend but they are so adorable, I make sure I feed him and I have seen him eating before the Starlings come but I like them also lol.
I must get a name for him fish :) Love the name Colin lol. I will let you know what I have named him.
When do you go to Ozz, it must be soon
Hello everyone, just put Xmas cake in oven looks a bit dodgy at the moment. OH tells me off for getting attached to theospreys and for getting upset but youre right just cant help it! So upset about Alba and now Ceulan, hopefully there will be good news on Wednesday. Id like to think that more have survived than we think! There have been intruders whose identity is onknown. I really dread looking in on Wednesday incase bad news. Lovely sparkling day for remembrance Sunday, very moving beyond words really.
