Trai Anfield on the Osprey

Tweet of the Day is a series of fascinating stories about our British birds inspired by their calls and songs.

A new series of Tweet of the Day for Sunday morning revealing personal and fascinating stories from some fresh voices who have been inspired by birds, their calls and encounters.

One bird above all others has captivated wildlife photographer Trai Anfield since childhood, the osprey. Family holidays to Scotland involved endless searching the skies looking for these summer visitors above Abernethy or Loch Garten. Once seen the thrill of watching osprey dive for fish was only matched by their struggle to soar into the sky carrying prey which sometimes matched its own weight. This lion of the skies arrived phoenix like in the spring to enthral Trai and her family, even if their call is a little bit to be desired.
