LOCH OF THE LOWES - APRIL 2020

We're in a very l--o-n-g buffer :(

Laddie hasn't been back to the nest since NC0 brought in the moss this morning; No sighting of NC0 after she left around 14:20. I do hope they're both ok

Edit - I wonder if the cam op was panning the area to try to locate them?

Cam has recovered to an empty nest :)

Apart from this character lording it...

...the nest has been empty for hours, except I can't account for 10 minutes of buffering from 19:25 onwards.

I didn't do a video of the "tour" because I think there was a better one some time ago, which I did cover :)

I just scrolled back about 12 mins and the camera was panning round the surrounding woodland. It's always nice to see nearby and gives a good insight of where the nest tree is positioned.

Richard, this picture which is displayed in the hide at LOL might also help.

Thanks Mike.
That's a lovely location, and it looks so different when viewed from a different perspective.

Good evening all. I haven't been around today had other commitments. Thank you all for the updates and captures etc. I was hoping to see news of an egg, not that they are both awol.. Nest is currently empty. :(

Be nice to know where they both are, they've been gone a long time

Sorry I've been duplicating others' efforts!  Went into my own oblivious, forgetful little world ;)

Just for our records, these are the last sightings of the two that I have.  I don't like the way Laddie flew off, as if after a threat - now I shall worry he's done an Odin  until we see him again 

Scylla, I originally thought Laddie was just flapping in the wind at the time, I didn't hear any alarm calls. The last time they were off-nest for any length of time (2 hours) was when the kayaker was on the Loch on 29th March. Quite worried here and hoping for good news in the morning
