Osprey - Rowsley

My first Osprey of the year spent an hour or so in the trees bordering the river at Rowsley yesterday before carrying on north just after 7pm.
Ken had a bird over Screetham Lane last week and there have been several sightings at both Ogston and Carsington in recent weeks of what has now become a regular migrant through the area.

Spring birds tend to pass through quickly, wanting to get to their nesting areas, whereas autumn birds are more likely to linger on their southward migration.
