RUTLAND OSPREYS 2013

Hi all, I have a feeling the cam is at the Manton Bay site, so site B not got a cam?  I might be wrong though ..

Apparently he got back yesterday morning or late Saturday. Poor bird returned to a blizzard!

Just been looking at the photographs Chloe. Really heavy snow in Rutland and also the heavy rain and gales on the Channel and across Southern England. What a feat for 03/97

Yes they really are amazing birds aren't they? :)

Just amazing, 03 back and in this weather too. He sure will go down in history, such an important Rutland Osprey.

Gorgeous photos on the blog :-)

Great news and fantastic blog :)

Just flicked over to the camera and nearly had a fit when a shelduck landed on the nest briefly!!

Fantastic news and great blog from Rutland :-)    What an osprey 03(97) is - truly awesome

Wonderful news indeed.  Mr Rutland returns once more, and a day earlier than last year.  Bet he didn't expect to be greeted by a snow storm.  According to Keith Rogers last year, 03(97) always has an early fling with passing females before his mate turns up!
