Osprey sighted over Widdop Moor and Reservoir

Philip Booker emailed me a sighting of an Osprey over Widdop Moor and Reservoir East Lancashire heading south.

Ospreys pass through this area heading north in spring and south in late summer early autumn they often stop over at Stocks reservoir and I have seen one there.

Each year the RSPB track some of the Loch Garten Ospreys as they migrate back to Africa one of the birds they tracked came through East Lancs have a look here http://www.rspb.org.uk/wildlife/tracking/lochgartenospreys/index.aspx click on previous years.
