Osprey - Pandion haliaetus |
|
 The osprey is migratory species that spends its summers in the UK. After years of persecution it is now re-establishing breeding sites across Scotland. It migrates down to Africa for the winter with most UK birds making their way to West Africa.
Ospreys are specialist fish eaters and put on a thrilling display diving feet first into lochs and catching fish, which are then hauled off and returned to the nest. The female spends most of her time on the nest occasionally being relieved by the male.
