Aila and Louis' first chick hatched on Friday 29 May. Perhaps we can expect number 2 and 3 to hatch on 1 and 4 June.
May brought lots of fish, clods, shag pile, sticks, osprey and owl intruders and fame to Aila and Louis, appearing on the BBC, Channel 4 and Chris Packham's Self Isolating Bird Club Live.

Good Morning All
Loved the video Geemeff - the ending was so apt - the wee bob saying - well that's what I think of that episode
Spider doing his work, but I like how the wee one is peeking out!
Louis brings half a fish to the nest - looks like a different one to the one late last night.
EJ's Memorial Balgavies Loch Ospreys 2023
Aila and her sticks
Here she is incoming @ 06.24
Its the looks on the chicks faces
Did you have to drop it on me Mum
Off it goes again
I find it quite interesting to see the viewing figures, even at this time of the morning.
It shows just how popular Loch Arkaig Ospreys are
Must remember to do a comparison through the day to see how it varies.
As you can tell I am whiling away time to the next fish delivery
Morning all. Mary I think after the BBC coverage the highest I saw was 2600. I think George at WT did a post on WT chat about views the stream had received. The total numbers were very impressive. Given WT have to purge the comments section on a regular basis the post may not still on the site. Maybe Geemeff has a note of them. Ian PS - the number is 307 just now.
EDIT - the oldest comment I can see on WT chat is from yesterday afternoon, they must have done a purge yesterday.
Good morning, PATILY & MARY :-* You're getting to be a whizz at rollback, Mary, I'm jealous ;)
Lots of rain last night.
I wonder if the web will still be intruding tonight? It looks quite strong:

I think I saw it on Channel4 News too. A huge stroke of luck for Woodland Trust/Louis&Aila I wonder how it came about?
