LOCH OF THE LOWES-JUNE 2015

Thanks Tiger.  Yes, I remember many thinking that it should have been Garten but for some reason I seem to remember it mentioned in the blog Roy swithering who to tag but in the end he went with the hatching order.   Just to satisfy my own curiosity now, I must find/read that blog again lol

What a shame that so little info has been given Do we know which of the chicks was left on the nest? Was it the youngest? Is there a way   to ask for more details? There isn't a comment section after the blog

It was FR2 that was left on the nest.  More information may come with the next blog. 

Thanks TIGER I knew that I meant which one age wise?

I'm sure from some of Roy's ospreys he went with the heaviest chicks, but yes at LG it has always been the eldest chicks.  Maybe it's different if there are only 2 chicks and you are only tagging one.

Unfortunately we do not know that for definite. 

Maybe they will do a more detailed blog later today.

In the meantime Lassie is looking out over the loch as the chicks chill out.

One has his head under a siblings tail LOL..
