The 2 chicks were ringed on 4 July and assessed as female. They were given ring numbers JJ0 and JJ2, and later named by popular vote as Mallie and Rannoch. Both weighed 1.49kg on ringing but will weigh a lot more now after a further month's-worth of protein-packed-piscine-parenting. The WT subsequently said they thought Mallie may be male. S/he fledged on 20 July and Rannoch on 27 July.

Unknown said:Thanks, All. Looks more difficult to eat than other types of fish.
Indeed Ann, Lachlan (the 2017 juvenile) really struggled with flounder. The two girls this year are better at coping with them but I am sure they would still prefer a nice trout or salmon instead. Ian
Glad to see you on this lovely nest, GardenBirder :-*
Here's a slideshow of the 5 (mostly fuzzy) fish that Rannoch got today - oops it's yesterday now :o Not very informative but I think the count it right :)

It's a late start this morning:
Unfulfilled, she flew @ 07:04.
Morning, PATILY :)
Your tablet has garbled your post, but if it was asking when AILA was last seen, I think it was when she delivered a fish to Mallie on the 13th, amazingly early IMHO.
