    Lol Korky! Slight smile

  • From The Lodge VC fb - nest abandoned? Disappointed

    Here

  • Oh no! And I doubt they'll have the back footage of the video cam stream and/or the time to scroll back to see what might have happened. Too much tragedy all round at the Scottish nests this season. Garten, Balgavies, Lowes, Aberfoyle. Fingers crossed for Arkaig although I fear the 5 hours abandonment there may have chilled the eggs.
  • Agreed Korky, what a terrible season so far. I have confidence about Loch Arkaig, the egg that eventually turned out to be Lachlan in 2017 was left exposed for much longer than five hours. We (hopefully) shouldn't have too long to wait as the first egg arrived on 23 April. Ian

    EDIT - we could add Caerlaverock to the list of bad things this year, I recall that the camera nest there has also been abandoned.

  • OMG!Already in floods of tears over poor little LotL chick 3 and now THIS What could have happened ? I was so happy that Clarach was going to be a mum again Pray god she and her partner are OK
  • Firstly, I hope they are OK. Immediate thoughts are disturbance of some kind but I ask what on earth is going on? I don't think many of us are going to forget 2019 in a hurry!
  • Thanks for all the messages, Everyone, but oh dear, not here as well! Was it Corvids again or a Pine Marten or...?

    Kind regards, Ann

  • Can't believe what is happening this year, so wanted this nest and Clarach/male to be successful this year, it is certainly turning out to be one of those "annus horribilis" years. 

  • Not sure if this video on Facebook has been posted already. From yesterday - ''no action on nest".

    'Footage taken this morning at 11am. No sign of Clarach on the nest when we turned on the camera at 10.20am. Still no sign of her or male at 12.55pm. We'll keep watching and keep things updated as best we can.'
