LOCH ARKAIG (c)The Woodland Trust - MAY 2019

Here's an unedited video of the 3-minute incident - they do look sweet.

I'll have to do the stick/nest material video later, it's not joined up yet.  TTFN (for a change).

That was a great clip! Love how Aila kept inching towards Louis, all the while looking up. One might have thought it was a ruse on her part to get him to budge. Aila: “Look at that intruder!” Louis: “what intruder?!” Aila: “that one that one!” Louis: “I don’t see one...”. Sighing, Louis stood up for a better look and Aila made her move to incubate once more. Smiling to herself, Aila snuggled down as Louis took off in search of Aila’s imaginary intruder. “Whatever works” she chuckled! Thanks Scylla!!

It should have bee Louis doing all the warning chipping !! This character was sky dancing - i. e. a male yet it was Aila trying to see him off! Louis should have been a wing or at least mantling and chipping himself!! I hope you are right LIsa and Louis was in pursuit of the intruder.

Great video Scylla

Oh bother, I got it all wrong didn't I . It was Louis who was incubating and chipping !  Quite rightly. Aila was mincing around as if nothing was happening.

Cirrus, it was Louis who was giving all the warning calls & it was Louis who flew off. I don't know why you think it was Aila who was "trying to see him off". Ian

We posted together Ian, thank you for correcting me though :)

Loving clip SCYLLA and love the interpretation LISA

15-53 Hrs...FISH for Aila....medium size

Early morning and later, Louis brought cot-rails - then a mid-afternoon fish, and Aila made a face at us:

Aila made a puny ;) effort with teeny clumps of earth:

The another big stick from Louis!

 Aila's night.

Semi-warning:

More serious warning:

"I'm still ready for ya!"

She's been alert for much of the night:

Bathroom break:

Her little flyabouts always seem to refresh her :)

Looking out Louis's way now 'n then:

No visit from Louis yet.
