| | | Ospreys 2011
It's almost that time of year again, the Osprey Centre in Abernethy Forest near Boat of Garten has switched the live webcam from the feeders it has shown all winter to the Osprey nest.
Reading the blog on the RSPB site this morning, the earliest an Osprey has ever arrived was the 17th of March, more usually it's any time from the 25th of March, only a week away, but it could be anytime now.
Has anyone seen an Osprey further south this year yet?
Regards, Audrey. |

Not heard anything in the north west yet! It would be nice if the one that stopped off at nearby Dover Lock ponds for a week last year - came and spent another week with us!! I have my fingers crossed  |

We had one fly over Stocker's Lake, Rickmansworth last year (or the year before) on it's way out. They built a make-shift Osprey nest to try and encourage it back, hopefully it will this year
