Welcome to EJ and Odin's first chick of the season, reports yesterday's Strathspey&Badenoch Herald! This was certainly the buzz of the day after our days and nights of anxious waiting. Unfortunately, the cam lost its focus last night, and is now completely down. No, I just checked it again and see a fuzzy EJ wobble as well as hear the tiny chucks of a little one!© RSPB - Loch Garten and Carnyx WildYesterday's capture during a first feed, from BNN.

Good morning, all! We weren't expecting a second osplet yet - was the first slow to hatch or was this one quick off the mark?
The proud mother is looking absolutely Beautiful this morning:
She's also calling quite frequently:
Our herring gulls are red listed birds. Think about that the next time you hear some flaming idiot calling for a cull of them.
