LOCH ARKAIG (The Woodland Trust) - AUGUST 2019

Thanks, Ian, for the summary. Hope the same successful season happens here at Arkaig and at the Aberfoyle nest next year. I normally need to limit my viewing of webcams to exceedingly short periods which means I only check two or three nests once or twice a day for a few seconds each; I depend on others to take captures and post comments. When on holiday I watch for slightly longer periods and can dip in a bit more frequently. Usually I only have time to read a few of the threads so really appreciate the contributions of you and all of the other posters on all of the nests.

Nest is empty.

13.38 PM, Fish delivery to a Juvenile. Juvie doing more looking around than eating--not really hungry? Ah, tucking in a bit more now at 13.41 PM. Cannot see ring number.

Edit: possibly JJ2.

It was Rannoch (JJ2). The fish looked like a headless flat fish. Ian

14-36 Another good fish for Rannoch ... this one, not flat

14-52 And yet another Louis delivered, non-flat, very alive, nice fish. No takers!!!

Louis eventually flies with it.

Edit:

15-24 Louis returns with fish, now headless,,, Rannoch quickly in to grab it,

Louis with his fish.
