The Scottish Ospreys from extinction

“Man has done his best, incredibly, to drive the osprey from the shores of Scotland. For over forty years the osprey was forced into exile and few ornithologists before the Second World War thought this magnificent bird would nest in the British Isles ever again…”

"The Scottish Ospreys – from extinction to survival" by Philip Brown is a captivating account of one of Scotland’s most remarkable wildlife conservation stories. Brown traces the osprey’s dramatic decline to extinction in the British Isles and follows the determined efforts that led to its re-establishment in Scotland.
 
Combining detailed natural history with first-hand conservation insights, the book offers an engaging narrative about these majestic birds of prey, their migratory journeys, nesting habits, and the dedicated work of ornithologists and volunteers who brought them back.
 
A must-read for bird enthusiasts, conservation supporters, and anyone inspired by the resilience of nature.
