Rutland Ospreys Satellite Tracking

I was fortunate to visit Rutland Water two weeks ago for the 25th Annual Birdfair. The area is now well known for its breeding Ospreys and their migratory journeys are tracked each year with satellite tracking. It is a heartwarming story of conservation, faith and, above all, hope - that these magnificent birds will make it safely to their winter quarters (well, winter for us). I can tell it no better than the news posted on the official site, in particular concerning Osprey number 30(05) and her journey south.

Amidst all the sorrowful world news this story is something to gladden the heart...
