So March has arrived and this is the month when the ospreys will arrive back at their nests. There is a huge amount of anticipation for the season ahead.
For Loch Garten there are so many questions. Will EJ be first back as is usually the case? Will we see Blue XD at Loch Garten this year?
More recently we have had the Caledonia effect. The VAP team went out to Seville and managed to find Caledonia's wintering quarters. In the process they forged links with two local osprey loversin the form of Murat and Roberto. This was an extemely welcome development.
It will be interesting to see if Lady makes it back for yet another season.
Although it turned out very sad for Dyfi in 2012 the Ceulan effect will not be forgetten any time soon.
5N (04) will presumably get back to Rutland to find that she is a widow once again. What she will not know is that two of her offspring made it back last year which is quite an achievement.
Rutland are also publishing a new osprey book on 14th March 2013
Excitement is at fever pitch.
