Link to previous thread: Loch of the Lowes - May 2019
The season so far: LM12 (Laddie) arrived back 15 March and LF15 (Lassie) on 23 March. Lassie laid 3 eggs on 4, 7 and 10 April hatching 11, 12 and 16 May. Sadly on 26 May tragedy struck and the third chick died. Laddie and Lassie continue to work hard to raise their young and Laddie is once more proving to be an excellent provider bringing in plenty of fish to feed his family.

17:50 After a brief break away from the nest, Lassie returned, found remains of the fish and started to feed - only one chick up for it

Sandra P said:In your captures, Starling, and only going by feather development, #1 left, #2 right. I'm going to predict #1 being male and #2 female just by looking at their size. I'm probably totally wrong with that! lol
I'm sure you are right Sandra ::) I won't bother guessing I'm never right LOL

Fish delivered @ 19.23, turned out I was 15 mins behind as I forgot to scroll forward from earlier LOL

Laddie just arrived with a fish. No interest at first so he started eating it. Lassie took a break, but back now and feeding one of the chicks, other one not that interested so far.
Intruder about.
