The season so far:
Glesni (Blue 12) and Monty arrived back within hours of each other on 1st April. Glesni laid three eggs on the 14th, 17th, and 20th April and have now hatched - #1 on the 21st, #2 on the 22nd and #3 on the 26th May. Full details of the hatches can be found here
Glesni and Monty have much to celebrate this month for as well as being the parents of three healthy, strong chicks they are also to become grandparents when their daughter Clarach's eggs laid on the 4th, 7th, and 10th May at the Aberfoyle Nest hatch!

Monty has just brought in a fish which Glesni takes and starts to eat and the chicks get themselves up for fish
All in a line but Glesni leaves the fish and cover the chicks.

Its raining heavily hence Glesni not feeding but instead shelters them. But the fish is there for when it fairs up
Tiny Bob, in the middle of the two huge Bobs, getting his share.
Rain stops play again.
Birdie Num Num's brilliant DU summary 2017
Feed time again. I watched little Bob, trying to wriggle his way through his two much bigger siblings. Only when big Bob moved over did #3 get his share.
