Our Scottish Osprey friend is back in Barbados!
The female was tagged last summer in Renfrewshire but was this month spotted in the Caribbean.
Surfers use technology to accurately predict where the swell will be. Professionals such as Kelly Slater hop on the plane to Barbados and other hot surf spots. It could be that very soon, with the use of AI, birders can do the same to track and follow migratory birds to their next hot spot!! Technology allows us to understand and interact with nature so much better.

The infamous Osprey starring on the BBC breakfast show! We hope he does stay on Barbados over the next year, as predicted, so more people can enjoy him.
When birding and science merge to benefit conservation. Congratulations to my fellow birder Mike St. John for taking these historic photos.
