  • Excellent Alan, maybe the watchers becoming more aware of where Osprey may travel when starting their long journey

    .

    Pity confirmation needed of this one in Cornwall yesterday, as that would have made it a draw CHOL:)

    Devoran – Osprey flew over Devoran Quay towards Pandora Inn at 0830hrs. Also Common Sandpiper (4) and Ringed Plover (3) (Thanks J.St Ledger)

     

  • There was a sighting of a tagged osprey at Loch Cuin, Isle of Mull at dawn today.

  • Observation of a ringed Osprey in the Deux-sèvres, France noted on nature79

    3 Ospreys including one ringed (orange on left leg, aluminium on right leg) on 8/09.2013 by Bernard Broucke.
