After a lot of work and countless 5am starts, it’s AMAZING to have received my advanced copies of The Osprey prior to publication on 29th Feb. Thanks so much to @chiffchat for doing such a brilliant job. What an honour to have contributed to this iconic series.

A really positive summer for the White-tailed Eagle project.
We are delighted to report that two pairs of White-tailed Eagles have bred successfully in southern England this summer, rearing a total of three chicks at nests in Sussex and Dorset. You can read more on our website: @SeaEagleEngland

Studying the diet of the White-tailed Eagles is a key part of the project. Our research has shown that fish becomes the favoured prey as the eagles mature and begin breeding. Learn more in our latest short film about the project.
In the final part of our new video series, we’re joining the project team to learn how they are working towards long term recovery of White Tailed Eagles in England. Watch here: @ForestryEngland @RoyDennisWF.

So pleased to see this Osprey return. Hopefully a sign of things to come in the West Midlands.
What a phenomenal week! The Osprey chick we ringed in Staffordshire in 2023 with @RoyDennisWF & @timmackrill has returned! He was seen fishing in the county on Thursday. The survival rate for migrating young birds is only thought to be around 30%. An incredible record!!!
