Osprey

Hi, first post and pretty good! Yesterday June 30th at around 9.30 am an Osprey flew over my house in Triangle. I watched it for a couple of minutes as it headed SW. Thought it was a seagull at first, then a buzzard but in binoculars it was clearly an Osprey (I've seen dozens in the US).
Is this a regular migration route or have I just been incredibly lucky?

Complete fluke. Was on the phone and just happened to be looking up through the window. Phone call was cut short.

Always a very good bird to get over Calderdale though I guess we miss a few on migration.
