Another Osprey at Rowsley

Ken Smith found another Osprey this afternoon, initially hunting over the short stretch of canal that feeds Caudwells Mill at Rowsley before moving on to the river and then landing in the trees behind Haddon Hall. 

You can see on the photo of the underside that this birds has a large Darvic type ring but it's not the juvenile that Ken photographed last autumn as the ring is much darker. There was no sign of it this evening but it could still be in the area. 
Great photos from Ken again and as Ken noted, it looks like it gave the local Jackdaws a bit of a scare.

  1. Excellent photos ... and that jackdaw wasn't far off getting it in the neck.
