Ospreys in Britain

The Osprey (''Pandion haliaetus'') is a medium large raptor which is a specialist fish-eater with a worldwide distribution. The subspecies ''Pandion haliaetus haliaetus'' is native to Eurasia and is found in the British Isles, where it is a scarce breeder primarily in Scotland with smaller numbers in England and Wales. It became extinct in the British Isles in 1916 and recolonised in 1954. Scandinavian birds migrate through Britain on the way to their breeding sites.
==History==
The Osprey formerly inhabited much of Britain, but heavy persecution, mainly by Victorian egg and skin collectors, during the 19th century and early 20th century brought about its demise. The Osprey became extinct as a breeding bird in England in 1840. It is generally considered that the species was absent from Scotland from 1916 to 1954, although there is some evidence it continued to breed in Strathspey in the 1930s and 40s.〔Shaw, Philip and Thomson, Des (eds) (2006) ''The Nature of the Cairngorms''. Edinburgh. The Stationery Office.〕 It is not thought to have inhabited Wales at this time:in Ireland it appears to have died out in the early nineteenth century.
