Thought I'd start a separate thread for the posting of news, updates, pictures etc. from the nest at the Loch of the Lowes. Now that the first chick has hatched at Loch Garten the Daily Update page is going to get too unwieldy if it is used for news from LotL as well as LG, and the "News From Other Nests" is getting pretty full as well.
Thanks Lofty can't get enough pics of Lady she really is a beauty. Good to see the two youngsters on the nest together and I don't know if you saw one eating but it was the youngest. I asked on LOtL blog whether they were both eating and they told me that it was the younger of the two that had consumed a whole fish. Eldest one is now shouting for one.

One of the young at 3:30 and calling.
If nothing goes right, go left! :-)
Hello and goodbye Sandra as have to go in a minute. Lovely pic and that is the eldest wanting food. The younger one consumed a whole fish a short time ago.
Was anyone watching the camera following one of the young around the Loch?? I am sure Isaw it skimming the water!
Hi Margo.
Oone chick in a tree.
Oh my gosh.
The camera was following one of the chicks flying around the loch, It was unbelievable!! It landed in this tree.
I have to go for my tea now.
Bye.
Thanks for the pics Sandra - amazing - flying a few days and now they seem like experts.
By the way did anyone see the close ups of the talons of one of the youngsters earlier on the nest ? scary!!
Looking in again, great pics lofty and Sandra. There is an earlier pic of mine in a set of three with one of the youngsters they were following but its only just visible.
