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.

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.

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!!!
