As the season progresses, Laddie (LM12) continues to make occasional visits to the empty webcam nest, defending his area from passing intruders. It is hoped that both he and NC0 have a successful nest in the vicinity of the Loch.

At least it is some action on the nest to report Sandra
I have had a quick scroll back this morning and didn't see anything obvious.
Not too long before the Ravens there were tiny birds on and around the nest and in the tree behind - for about 20 minutes! I chopped some out and put this on 4x speed - you may see summat, who knows?
No-one besides the Ravens seen since, no Tawny visit.
From scroll back
Around 9:05 - A raven spent about 40 minutes of quiet time on the nest

Thank you for the Tawny report, MICHAEL - it's such a shame that sounds don't register when I'm scrolling thru
Unknown said:That must be the trickiest ID you've posted so far.
Maybe I shouldn't have FF'd it but it went on so long - and the birds were so tiny, nothing I could do about that. Still, it's a triumph to have tested you, RICHARD
(Maybe I could have cropped it but then it's grainier.)
I just popped in to check if SANDRA had got the Raven, as expected, and she didn't let me down
The fly-off was no good so here's its arrival:
Nothing more to add up to 19:05.
