Loch of the Lowes - 2010

Hi Sandra a bit late but thanks for the pic of those two beautiful chicks looking at Lady.  Really beautiful.  Just back from holiday so trying to catch up with everything now.

Thanks Sandy for the link to the photo montage posted by Ann from Poland and many thanks to her for a wonderful reminder of a season that turned out so much better than we thought it might. 

Not sure which thread this should go on.... The Caerlaverock blog has today reported that Osprey Sighted on 23rd August with Darvic ring 4B was the first sighting of a 2001 chick from Loch Of Lowes.

Thank you very much for posting that link on here Vespa.  It’s wonderful to read about the sighting of the 2001 LOTL chick.

Sandra – I haven’t looked on here much since the end of the season but I see you pop in from time to time.  Thank you for posting lovely photo of the 2010 tiny chicks and also for your regular updates to this thread throughout the season which enhanced my enjoyment of watching the LOTL nest hugely.  It was great to have your company especially during the difficult week when Lady was ill.  Hopefully she, Laird and chicks have reached or will soon reach their winter destinations.

Thought I'd pull this one back up the list as I'm not sure what happens to the threads when they fall off the bottom of the group page...

Emma - they just go on to page 2, and can always be retrieved! It's better to set up this view of the Forum as your Bookmark/Favorite as it shows the paging:

Good afternoon Alan and thanks for those links.  What really pleases me is to see children becoming involved and learning about the magical birds.  Sounds as though the get together is going to be fun too.  I am waiting for the book to be published so I can get a copy.  Lady has certainly become famous although it was for the wrong reason.  Often wonder whether she had a safe migration but only time will tell us that.
