Can anyone from the Loch Garten staff answer the question I asked as I haven't had one reply at all?
The Loch Garten Visitor Centre closed at the end of August and doesn't reopen until April 1st. I imagine the only member of staff about now is Richard (and possibly Jen) - and Richard is known to not read the forum posts. The current Loch Garten forum would be the correct place to post threads about the other wildlife there even if the thread didn't feature ospreys.
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
Clare has given you good advice Thomo, there used to be an option to log on to a bird feeder cam & squirrel cam but don't know if these were discontinued in the new system earlier this year! There has been a Capercaille meet too in previous years, organised by various posters, usually very early in morning in freezing conditions (used to make me shiver just reading about it!) If you were to ask your questions in the 'Gabfest' forum I am sure you would get answers from more knowledgeable folk than me!

The live feeder cam is here. It should be active until mid-March, when it will move to the nest.
Thanks for that C, didn't read the small print!!
