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.
It just flew up and then back down.
If nothing goes right, go left! :-)
And now it has gone.
Sandra this will make you laugh I had been watching for quite a while today and thought I could see a chick lying on the nest and it was not moving. In the end I phoned LOtL and asked if the chick was OK as it had been in that position for such a long time. What I was looking at was the egg but with the rain it looked as though there was a chick laying there. He assured me everything was OK and they were all probably sheltering from the rain in a tree.

Looked in but nest is empty, had been looking at the cam this morning and spotted both youngsters on the nest at one time, nobody there now.

Still doesn't look as though someone is home; they are enjoying their newfound freedom. Hopefully Lady is close by.
The chicks are across the Loch on the left hand side of the nest. Camera has just been scanning around and found them.
