Loch Garten osprey diary

The ospreys at Loch Garten have people across the world gripped in their tale of violence, adultery and... well... fishing.  More...

Limited data...

...so not much to report.

When I downloaded the data today I only got 3 new points (all for Mallachie). So I can't tell you all anything new about Rothes, though I'm sure she's doing fine on one of those islands off Guinea Bissau. Mallachie's 3 points are for 2-4pm yesterday (15th). They show her continuing in a SW direction through the northern part of Mauritania.

Sorry I can't tell you more than that - but it does mean I'll have extra data to input on Monday - so you can look forward to Monday's update.

Have a good weekend.

Thank you Alice. Let's hope that Mallachie will have found some fishing grounds before Monday's update. Have a nice weekend.

Have a great weekend Alice and thanks so much for 'bothering' despite thinking you didn't have much to report. It was all good stuff for us I assure you and any news on Mallachie right now so welcome. Just want her to arrive safely.

Thanks Alice- have a good weekend yourself!

I'm off to Wales for a red kite fix so won't see any updates till the end of next week- I'll try not to worry too much, I'm sure our girls will be fine.

Hi Alice,

When you look at the data for the weekend, check the page for "Talisman" on Roy Dennis' site. He's arrived in the Bijagos Islands, and was roosting on Ilha de Enu near to Rothes' islands!

Thanks Alice

Will be glad to get the next set of data.  It's interesting that Talisman is "so near" in theory to Rothes.  When you think of all the ospreys going down that way there must be a few of our named characters (indluding EJ and Odin maybe) whose paths cross over the wintering period. x
