Don't know but they seem to be breeding; there was only one the other day & there have been four today!
I'm quite surprised by how loud they are - substantially louder than the Chinooks & you can hear them coming from miles away.

Not replacing Chinooks no - here's a highly speculative article which doesn't help much:

Might be on their way to Duxford airshow. The US has had two at Mildenhall since 2013, maybe they just came down to that London for the day for a show and an Angus Steak House?

Why are Ospreys flying along the river? Have they replaced Chinooks?
