Red 8T was away south at 6am and passed Grantham at 10am. At 11am was just north of Rutland Water and probably overflew the osprey sites there and then called in at Eyebrook Reservoir at midday. Passed south over Pitsford Reservoir and by 4pm was just east of Oxford, an hour later at Nettlebed turned SW direct to Thatcham and then west to reach the woods at Kintbury – a favourite stop-over on previous migrations. 129 miles today
