Background
Description
Scots pines are large, evergreen trees, which are native to the United Kingdom. Lady's Tree is tall and around 100 years old. Lady was one of the world's oldest known breeding osprey and made an important contribution to the conservation of her species, laying 71 eggs and raising 50 chicks over her time in Lady's Tree. 2014, the year Lady's Tree won Scotland's Tree of the Year, was Lady's last year in the tree. In 2004, the Scottish Wildlife Trust set up a camera in the tree, and livestreamed the feed of the osprey nest. This feed has been viewed 1.3 million times from over 160 countries.
