With the migrations of young ospreys Carr and Deshar being followed step-by-step online, with detailed data fed back via their satellite tags, this podcast hears what has happened to them, and looks at the dangers faced by all young birds as they fly south to Africa. Starting with the example of one young osprey, translocated from Scotland to Poole Harbour by Roy Dennis and his team, along with ten other chicks, the podcast looks at the slim chances of a safe arrival at their wintering grounds for juvenile birds, and hears stories of amazing birds which survived, against all the odds, to return to breed in Scotland. With our increasing ability to engage with the journeys of individual birds, via satellite technology, are we able to remain objective when one fails to complete its migration?
