A short visit to the Loch for me today,but nonetheless plenty happening.
7Y our male Osprey had been on the nest for sometime before deciding personal hygiene should be taken care of and twice flew along the Loch dragging his Talons in the water,before 3 times submerging and bathing himself.
Not the greatest of photographs due to the distance but great to see this behaviour.

All by myself! 7Y sits on a perch in the Loch of the Lowes from where he "jumped in" for a couple of baths.

Our male Osprey 7Y takes himself for a clean by dragging his talons through the waters of the Loch of the Lowes in the sequence of shots below.
