Osprey CW relocated in Scotland

thanks to JW for the following information re the female Osprey photographed over Waters' Edge Barton on April 27th 2010 -- as a two year of this would be its first journey back north since its first trip to Africa?

 when chatting to one of our Osprey volunteers the other morning she mentioned an Osprey that had been rescued from the water up north somewhere. She remembered it having a white ring on left leg with CW - alarm bells rang in my head!!!. I probed a bit and found that it was seen hitting the water at a trout fishing lake (a loch) near Harelaw, Dumfriesshire but was unable to get out.


scroll down the link below for some super pics of the bird
