The
Foundation carries out major studies and conservation
management on ospreys. For example, we monitor breeding
pairs in the North of Scotland and bring together annual
breeding data, carry out ringing and satellite tracking,
build and maintain artificial nests, encourage and help people to
conserve ospreys on their lands, provide colour rings to
other osprey ringers and maintain the osprey colour ringing
scheme, give advice and training, and encourage the
restoration of ospreys throughout their ancestral breeding
ranges in the British Isles and Europe. We maintain contacts
with osprey workers throughout the world. With Rutland Water
Nature Reserve and Anglia Water plc we carried out the
successful reintroduction of osprey to the English Midlands,
which also led to the re-occupation of Wales. We have helped with reintroduction to Spain, and advised
projects to Italy and Portugal. |
