description A new series of Osprey surveys started in early June of 2012 and ended in July of 2018. The main goal was to survey the local resident breeding Ospreys. We also visited three wintering areas in Malaha, Aswan and Lake Nasser. We found breeding and nesting Ospreys in most of the visited Islands at the Red Sea, with nests located mostly on sand dunes but also on roof tops. A total of only 39 pairs were confirmed breeding in the Red Sea and South Sinai provinces, and 16 non-local Osprey were observed at the wintering sites, which make Egypt important as a stopover area for Osprey during migration.
