Osprey migration

[mealsonwheels]

You may already be following it, but for anyone who hasn't seen it yet, the Scottish Wildlife Trust website has a satellite tracking page for tagged Ospreys migrating to Africa. The website map is regularly updated with the route taken.
'Osprey Blue 44' was hatched at Loch of the Lowes, Scotland on 21st May and is now well on it's way south. Yesterday it was tracked roosting just north of Gillingham, Kent at 6 a.m. and will shortly make the route across the channel.
It is very interesting and a great website for children to get an insight into bird migration.

A second Scottish Osprey 'Blue YD' from Angus is now on his way south too, last tracked flying over the Lake District.
'Blue 44' left UK at Camber, East Sussex, crossed the Channel safely to Normandy and is now heading south over France.

OH currently watching the Ospreys play Glasgow on Scrum 5. Judging by the way they are playing these particular Ospreys are migrating down the league.
