AAh right Ian, maybe he has gone for another then, Aila still cheeping. I always think Aila is so gentle, maybe I haven't heard her at full voice, but when I think back to how EJ could screech for Scotland, maybe Aila has still to grow into that yet

16.37, Louis arrives empty taloned, Aila still asking for fish (or something). Ian
EDIT - Louis is now having a wee lie down beside Aila.
She indeed Ian, cheeping for more fish!
I think I am more disappointed than Aila, I was hoping to see a fish delivery today!

Awww I was just coming to post a cap of that Ian..... they sure do look loved up.
Louis gets his way and Aila leaves while he settles down on the eggs
He looks quite proud of himself
Have to leave now as my dinner is oot!
Aila came back at 17.37 and Louis left eventually after she kicked him, trod on his tail & almost poked him in the eye with a stick! Maybe he will provide an early evening fish. Ian
18.56, Aila is getting soaked on the nest. Louis arrives giving warning calls with a whole fish. After a couple of minutes looking very alert, Louis darts off at 18.58 after another bird (maybe a corvid) leaving Aila on the nest starting on the fish. Louis gets pretty close to whatever he is chasing, especially at 18.58.35 to 18.58.38. Louis comes back at 19.05 and Aila takes off with the fish. As she flies off you can see that the fish is a very nice size. Ian
