Last season Louis and Aila arrived on their nest almost at the same instant on the 4th of April. Here's to a repeat, but a few days earlier to save our anxiety.

Clumsy Louis
Morning all. It is lovely to see the glen becoming greener, especially the birch tree at about 10 o'clock from the nest and the sun is now making a tentative appearance. I did a quick scroll back and saw a fish delivery at 05.59. It was rather scraggy looking and certainly not a whopper. Aila took it and flew but was back within 15 minutes. Ian
Morning All
Thanks for all your posts and captures
Lovely scene at LA at the moment, low lying clouds rolling along, and Aila nodding off occasionally.

08.10 Louis brings in a clump of something, and Aila leaves the nest.
Aila returns with the thud, they changeover and Louis flies off
Louis incubating, panting in the sun
Aila arrives and takes over incubating
Louis flies off
09.27 Louis is back empty taloned and they changeover incubation
She's panting. Can't believe it's that hot just yet...or...time for another egg? No, only 2 days since number 1.
EDIT Fort William friend says it's a beautiful day there so maybe it's 20 degrees already
12.45, Louis plonks another stick on Aila as he was landing with it. He does so again at 13.05. Ian
(13.20) 14.20 - edited for correctness, thank you, Ian.
A neat fish delivery by Louis. A good hand-over and fly off by Aila. Louis is incubating
