SHES BACK!!!!!! The Lady Returns

Post  Safari Maiden on Fri Apr 15, 2011 10:19 pm

I cant believe Lady, Britain's oldest Osprey is back and settled in her roost.

The full story is here: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1377436/Britains-oldest-osprey-Lady-settled-Highland-roost-21st-time.html?ito=feeds-newsxml

I truly thought she would not return after her illness and slightly later start. What an amazing bird.

That is a shame. But Lady is 26 and thats amazing in itself but who knows, maybe it was the weather conditions that affected the eggs and not her age. All being well we may find out next year if Lady is able to have more chicks but at 27 by then I wonder if that would be a miracle but with Lady we shouldn't give up on her just yet.

Let's hope so, but even if she doesn't, it's wonderful news that she is back.

Thanks for the photo WS.
