Last season, the webcam went on line 7 March so here is a new thread for the 2018 season getting us ready for first glimpse of the nest and the arrival of its residents – LM12 and LF15 otherwise known to us as Laddie and Lassie.
Laddie arrived last season on the 16th March, the first osprey back to a public nest and also the earliest for an osprey to return to the Lowes in 50 years. Lassie kept him and us waiting a few days arriving 23 March.
Here’s wishing Laddie and Lassie a safe journey home and another successful season.
I have got day cam now as well, Ian
I am afraid I am getting the same screen as yesterday morning "THE LIVE STREAM IS EITHER DOWN OR HAS ENDED"
It only runs for seconds then I get this screen.
Maybe working on it again.
Think I need to check during the day to see if it is working then.

Mary, I think this is related to what I said yesterday. There is some sort of security check out of hours which upsets the system.
I'll ring them at 0930.
Birdies LG DU update.
Morning Mary, Mike & All
So frustrating these issue with the cam for the Lowes and us!!
Mary - I checked the cam a few times yesterday and it was OK.
Mike - appreciate you going to contact them, hopefully it is as you suspect and they get this resolved.
Dang! I was about to use this cam to test software, kill two birds (?!) with one stone >:(
IMAGICAT
Just for a second I was fooled, but VLC has it on that loop again:
No joy yet:-( Still on nightcam.
Well today is the 16th, the date Laddie arrived back last year.
I wonder if he'll turn up today?
UPDATE.
The rain has caused a total loss of power at LOTL. Electrician on site and technical guys waiting on the restoration of power.
I can't actually hear the sound of hair being torn out!! but I feel it is close!
The site has been checked and there is no sign of any Ospreys yet.
Thanks Mike, appreciated :-)
Hopefully no damage to the cam and when the power is restored, all will be well ..... fingers crossed.
Just as you have advised us Mike, here is a tweet from the Lowes 4 mins ago updating
