Osprey in the Gambia
Now for something completely different!
Member Keith Allen took this photo whilst holidaying in The Gambia in January.  As you see the bird is carrying a leg ring.  Much to everyone's surprise the ring was applied when the bird was a chick in a brood of three at a site near Ardfern, Argyll, Scotland on 10th July 2013.
