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.

Just to show I care...
The Raven had a big tail feather missing:

That's up to about 3 hours ago.

Truly scrumptious, SANDRA
I don't know if I'll have it because my downloads have been saying they're dowloading but actually standing still !!! I think I've fixed it again but it seems to be only temporary
I'm not going to even try to do a video, unless you say there was something unusual that should be catalogued ;)
Lovely captures of the tawny ladies.
I can empathise with your network problems Scylla, we experienced the same for several weeks, Internet dropping out every few minutes, resetting hub etc.. we were almost at the stage of buying a new hub, so glad we didn’t as for some strange reason it started working OK again.
Sandra P said:I've been hearing the juvenile Tawny Owls
Yes, I found their voices but didn't find them on the nest at all
However, at around 04:00 this little bird appeared thru the grass etc at the back of the nest - whatever could it be at that time of the morning?
I cropped it and made it less glary but whether that's an improvement... ???
It's dead still this morning, not a breath of wind.
I will go for blue tit Scylla as I was able to expand it on iPad

You've nearly inspired me to buy an iPad
I've just put it on full screen and see what you mean!
11:01 Laddie onto the nest, chipping. There's a second Osprey chipping in the distance
11:14 After a period of silence and looking around, he began to chip again
11:29 He's very quiet, just resting and checking his area
11:30
11:31 Laddie flew from the nest
Fantastic to see him for half an hour on the nest, recent visits have been very brief
