A Cumbrian osprey has been spotted on the West African coast. The four-year-old Osprey, tagged as Blue V8, was one of two chicks that fledged from Cumbria Wildlife Trust s Foulshaw Moss nature reserve in 2016. Some 4,000 miles from where it hatched, the male bird of prey was seen at Tanji Bird Reserve in The Gambia by bird guide Fansu Bojang, who regularly guides British birdwatchers in search of UK colour-ringed ospreys. Paul Waterhouse, reserves officer at Cumbria Wildlife Trust, said: “This is very exciting news indeed and we are very grateful to Fansu for letting us know about it. We know that the osprey chicks which hatch in Cumbria face a long and arduous migration to West Africa when they are about five months old, and sadly as many as 60 to 70 per cent don’t survive this first journey.
