In reply to Starling:
You were correct Starling! lol
Following on from Starling's report PT4 did manage to steal it back (he's behind PT5 here)
PT4 walked away from the fish after eating for a short while so PT5 took over again
18:22 Laddie delivered another fish, PT4 grabbed this one
PT5 at the back, PT4 with new fish
18:45 Laddie in with a headless fish, PT5 grabbed
18:53 PT4 flew off the nest
PT5 made short work of that...
...then nibbled from the remainder of the other fish that PT4 had left
He flew off
19:16 Lassie visited and ate from the remnant of fish
She left the nest once she had eaten but left a small portion of fish
19:58 PT5 came to the nest and finished the fish piece
It didn't take him long to finish and flew from the nest

In reply to Sandra :
20:25 Lassie and PT4 were on the nest, she picked up any morsels she could find - PT4 did get a couple
Lassie flew from the nest, PT4 left a few minutes after. It's been ENS since

21:44 Lassie and her boys on the nest. PT5 flew off (I don't blame him with all the shouting PT4 is doing!)
PT4 flew away, Lassie left a little while later
22:07 Laddie with a fish, Lassie was hot on his tail to grab it!
Lassie guarded the fish until PT5 came to the nest
22:16
PT5 was still eating as the night cam came on around 22:35, Lassie was waiting patiently
Lassie was finally able to feed from the small amount of fish that was left
22:37 PT5 flew off
22:40(ish) Lassie departed
Not sure whats happening Insistenton being on that part of the nest but clearly having some difficulty.....flapping shouting Is the fish caught in the sticks? or is there a scrap he can't get? Now flown
