And now there are five (well, six actually!). And an Osprey?

There used to be one Goosander on the River Nairn over the past few years. This winter I have regularly seen four, but yesterday I spotted five. Four females fighting over the one male, up river beyond the A96 road bridge. Last week I saw two females and two males together, so that makes at least six Goosander gracing the river. I hope they plan to stay.

Good to here the news that the first Osprey has arrived at Loch Garten. So keep your eyes out for our regulars around our lochs and coastline. Fantastic to watch these birds in action, so please let me know when you spot one.
