April starts the season of 'Osprey hunting' for me .

So off to RSPB Loch Garten, on-line of course, and the sites up, just about, but no Ospreys as yet.

So over to Scottish Wildlife Trusts "Loch of The Lowes" Website and, and not one but two Ospreys & mating in full view of the cameras ! Its not the aged "Lady" but a new female now in residence, so we'll have to see if the old girl turns up at all. Well she is believed to be in the high twenties now, darn near Geriatric as far as Ospreys go ! I understand Rutland has a number of arrivals so I must keep watching Loch Garten for more tales of Bad Bird Behaviour !!

Come on now Nell, Brian's not that old that he should remember such things .

Jokes apart, it is truly wonderful that the scientists can tell us what's what after all these years.

ps ~ thank you for the info Nell

pps ~ et tu, Brue

As it will soon be the season of the "Return of the Ospreys" I thought that this short video would appeal to those looking out for them, Brian in particular!
