LOCH OF THE LOWES - APRIL 2020

I think you may be right Mary. Something similar rings a bell in my, even older!, memory.

Thanks Mary, great thread. Sad to see so many names from the past, both osprey and human, that no longer seem to be around.

Yes Korky it brought a lump to my throat and a tear in my eye seeing a few names who have since passed away, they live on in their posts on this Forum though! 

Morning ALL and thanks Mary for the info.

I too find it sad looking at the empty nest but imho I think this could be a situation similar to what happened at Caerlaverock when Yellow EP and his new mate Blue DK were disturbed and left the nest despite EP having used it for years with White HD. But all was not lost for I was informed they moved to another nest and successfully raised young. But of course there was no news of them as the nest was no longer in the public domain.

So what I am getting at is that we may not get any news as it could be Lowes will not want to disclose anything to protect a potential new nesting site. Just my opinion :-)

But I just hope Laddie and NCO are safe and settled :-)

We will just have to wait until Lowes next blog to see if they mention anything.    

If Laddie and NC0 have decided to use the old frustration nest, or have built another within view of the hides on the Loch I would not think there would be any reason not to publish this in their next blog. 

Good morning all,

Many thanks for the information, Mary, a very interesting read

Beautiful evening light at the Loch
