This is the scene I caught through my soundless VLC stream before it shut down, about 10 seconds after I fired it up. :( I guess if there is work being done in the VC, at least we may not be missing much on the nest. We'd all be up in arms if it was hatching or fledging time at Loch Garten!
No doubt that besides a report of early morn skydancing, the highlight of the day had to be this UNIQUE capture of a Great Tit (of three keepers) done by our unquestionably UNIQUE scylla. :-D This is the closest competition to seeing EJ on the nest in recent days! I hope LG sorts its technical woes, and I pray for EJ's well being wherever she may be. We may see her on the nest yet if we get the stream back! In the meantime, thanks to Moffer and Mike for contacting Aviemore and LG for sighting and technical fix reports.

Morning again all, quick look in as I am once again away to work. Only thing to see just now is the chaffies on the nest and the sound is now back. Well what will we see and find out today. Enjoy your day friends, it is lovely and warm here, for a change, see you after dinner.
Last day for the young one today Scylla!!
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Morning all. Thanks for the reports of an actual Osprey on the nest Scylla. It's been a strange few weeks.
Chaffinches, just checking that we're still here.
Helloooo in there
Are you in here?
They're over here!

I wasn't watching at the time, MOFFER, it was CC who caught it.
Plus! Being so dozy, I didn't include the initial flyby in the video, so here it is - a very pale bird, which was even paler and whispier in VLC :(
Also, I can't do anything about the interference in this one as the wing sounds get lost.

Just darn luck, I guess Moffer. I'm just relieved they've fixed the streaming! Still annoyed at the angle of the camera though. Never satisfied, am I! :-)

Me too. Every year I want to ask them* to change it, every year there's never a good time and nor can one be confident of a friendly reception. Maybe during this year's break?
*And who should "them" be? We'll have to get MIKE on the case, and no winkie on the end, deliberately!
