Ranging in the Borders

Roxy ranged widely after failing to breed this summer and was using about 19 square km in early July and then 32 square km in early August

Usual Borders haunts

Roxy ranged in an area of 30 square km through June

Back to ranging behaviour

Roxy failed to breed successfully this year which is disappointing, and it’s not sure whether she was non-breeding or failed after laying eggs. During May she was ranging in an area of 43 km².

Sadly looks like Roxy has failed to nest successfully

Roxy’s behaviour in March and early April suggested she might breed in the same area as last year, but by mid month it looked like something had happened – failed or been disturbed. This was confirmed on 21st/22nd April when she roosted ovenight 22 km away and 9 km away on 24th/25 April

No change – moving towards the nesting season

Roxy has ranged in an area of 50 square km and looks to be thinking of nesting again
