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.

It's taking so long to get into RF again this morning.
As reported by Geemeff, there have been streaming outages again, therefore I had to switch off downloader. Checking thru the nightcam I can't see any disturbances (but others are better at that than I am), she had a flyabout @ 02:10, here she is just after daycam:
Louis is late this morning !!!
IMAGICAT
Aila got up to feed the chicks, had a couple of bites herself but fed them with her back to us:
THREE chicks and an eggshell?
EDIT
Maybe someone can get hatch from rollback but the last I noticed the egg was whole @ 21:30 last evening and we had 3 chicks by 03:50 this morning ??? (But we need to take my ole eyes into account ;) )
First I must strongly whinge about the time it's taking for RF to open - it's been like it since I logged on around 03:00.
I'm going backwards and getting there! ;) Thought I should examine Aila's 02:10 flyabout, here it is from rollback, the third hatch is done:
