I can only agree with what Alan and Tiger have said and also am not entirely convinced regarding osprey sightings this early.
I even had a call that an osprey was spotted around Lochter Fishery - it was a pale buzzard.
I imagine it's possible that Saturday's sighting could have been of a bird heading for Scandinavia after wintering in Spain.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
