Update from Roy Dennis:
"1st July - all the birds updated - remains a very wet summer - we've been busy ringing and satellite tagging - still a lot to do. Off to Loch of the Lowes and Lake Bassenthwaite next ."
3 year old Swedish tracked osprey 57375 has returned to Sweden
I looks like the other pair of 2 year olds have perished on the way home. One in France and the other in Western Sahara.
How very sad to survive 2 years and then perish on way home. The more I learn of ospreys its a miracle when any of them survive the hazards of migration. Can relate to the dangers of the Sahara crossing but France?

Vespa Crabro Tiger Does that mean 3 (97) ? My hope is that it's the male at site K; we'd discover his identity at last!!!! I supose it equally could be one of the 2009 birds; although as they discovered last year they are easiest to catch if they are defending a nest. This might make 5R pretty tricky as well
It would be interesting to see where 03(97) winters - although even more so if they also tracked a few more of his offspring: that might answer one or two interesting questions. But he is one of the oldest birds around - they may prefer to try for the younger males, for the best chance of getting several years worth of data. I too hope the site K male is one of them, if only to see if the theory re his identity is correct.
Swedish osprey 57375 latest position:
Not sure what to make of Swedish osprey 19153. Started migration ok but signals have been coming from Western Sahara since 18th May about 20 miles from the coast. Looks like an unlikely place for an osprey to be but signals are showing movement:
