Beautiful Buzzard 😍 One of the UK'S most common and widespread birds of prey, the Buzzard is often an underrated visitor to our reserve. Due to its dark colouring and similar features, up here they can often be mistaken for eagles giving it the nickname the 'tourist eagle' and disappointing visitors after the larger prize. But up close these are stunning birds in their own right - just look at this delicate and beautiful female that visited us last summer! She was just checking out the osprey n

WE HAVE OSPREYS 🎉🦅 Yesterday evening, our first osprey of the season touched down on the nest – and it’s Asha! Our resident female, its her 5th year returning here to Loch Garten! 💚 BUT that's not all! This morning, another bird has landed on the nest - a ringed male, 047. Hatched in 2021 from Moray, he was seen intruding here last year, but has never bred at this nest before.... so will be interesting to see what happens next and if anyone else joins the party... 👀 A reminder our Nature Cen

A frozen morning at Loch Garten ❄️ Stillness, soft winter light, and the kind of quiet that slows everything down. It’s been a truly beautiful week on the reserve, snow clinging to the trees, wildlife busy foraging for food, and many moments like this that remind you to pause and simply take it all in 🌲❄️ | RSPB Loch Garten, Abernethy

🦅 Osprey Drama at Loch Garten! 🦅 Our original resident ospreys, Brodie and Asha, have been keeping us on the edge of our seats! Recently, Brodie has been spotted on the nest with Asha, both displaying mantling behavior in response to an unringed osprey intruder. In an unexpected twist, KL5—who ousted Brodie earlier this year—returned with a fish, seemingly unaware that Brodie is back in the picture. Not to be outdone, Brodie brought Asha a fish the following morning, reaffirming his place in t

When your own nest turns against you! 🌪️🪵 It’s been an incredibly windy day as Storm Floris swept across Scotland, and the ospreys, being the exposed nesters they are, have been taking the brunt of it! Probably unsurprisingly, after getting pelted by her own nest sticks, our female decided to take shelter and spent the afternoon tucked away in a more protected spot. Can’t say we blame her! 🦅 💨 | RSPB Loch Garten, Abernethy

It has been a wildly fantastic season, with so many high points. However, it was undoubtably a huge low to lose one of our osprey chicks, 1C1. Earlier evidence indicated that she was dealing with an infection. Today that infection was confirmed to be a case of salmonella. Thank you for all the support and we will keep you up to date with any further news. Until then, here is 1C1 enjoying her time on the nest earlier in the season. | RSPB Loch Garten, Abernethy
