<\/a><\/p>\nAfter being seen in Switzerland in May (see story of his return here<\/a>), but with no news since then, we were delighted that \u201cFus\u00e9e\u201d (PR9) suddenly appeared at our release site the afternoon of July 28. That day there were already five young Osprey flying around the aviaries that had recently been released, so we thought at first that we were seeing double when we counted six birds. We finally identified the \u201cextra\u201d bird, perched on the same branch with two of our young ones, which seemed rather bemused to have a visitor. Fortunately, Fus\u00e9e later took advantage of some \u201cfree fish\u201d at our feeding station, so we were able to confirm by webcam that it was indeed him. For a video of his brief landing and departure with a fish, click here<\/a>. We immediately noticed that Fus\u00e9e was far more experienced and agile in collecting fish than\u00a0the recently released young birds. This is yet another very positive step for the project, as he is the first of our birds to return to the reintroduction site, just two years after his release in 2016.<\/p>\n Since then Fus\u00e9e has been visiting us again from time to time, and has even adopted an artificial nest as his favourite perch. Let\u2019s hope that he will survive his next migration and return next year\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" After being seen in Switzerland in May (see story of his return here), but with no news since then, we were delighted that \u201cFus\u00e9e\u201d (PR9) suddenly appeared at our release site the afternoon of July 28.
