What a difference a month makes. But someone, somewhere has said that hope springs eternal in the human breast. We hope for better things next year at the historic Loch Garten nest.
In the meantime there are several other nests just abustin' with cute little bobbleheads and good cameras. Happy Watching! And reporting, please, the more the merrier.
EJ is on her nest, calling presumably for food. Yes, it is EJ. I finally saw her white ring.
She is NOT sitting on the cup, as if incubating eggs that are no longer there.
At Manton Bay the little bobbleheads peek out from under Mum.
I hear on Facebook & from a friend that a chick is nearly out at DYFI. I would love to watch, but I must be out for a necessary errand.
The cam has gone on extreme close-up, so apparently they are expecting something, either a hatching or maybe a peek at the new hatchling.
Glesni was restless,wiggling back & forth, but has now gone quiet.
Morning June and all. Three chicks at Dyfi have just found out! Lets hope the weather stays fine for all these families!
EJ tucking into a nice juicy fish!
Willow - Yes great news about the third chick at Dyfi!
Sad news from Hellgate, looks like there will be no chicks there this year.

Fabulous photos Starling! Can someone tell me where is Hellgate? sounds awful!!
So sad for the birds who lose offspring this way. I was delighted to find bluetits made a nest next door in an old decorative chimney pot only to discover the poor little things drowned a couple of days later or died of cold!!!
Hi vivienne - that is so sad about your blue tits next door!
Hellgate is a US nest cam that we used to watch before there were so many UK cams. Some of us still look in and keep up with things.
They seem to have taken the cam offline, but here is there facebook link if you want to have a look.

Hellgate, Montana, USA Will try to get a map to give you a better idea. Again I recommend Google Earth.
NOT AWFUL, but I suspect some irreverent persons with a sense of humor had their own unpleasant experiences for this unpleasant name.
