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.

Although they have not said I think from all the sightings we have had of Ospreys on the webcam the nest must be within the Loch Area.

Looks like they have a ticket system in place....
Great news about the fledged chick! Checked in briefly about 0715 and Osprey chipping in the distance probably from the dead tree. Checked back about 0840 and pretty sure it had a fly round from left to right and back dipping it’s feet so may have been eating. Hard to make out on my tablet though. Michael S
EDIT : time for fly round actually between 0825-30. Tough work with no timeline!

Last night I forgot to post the slogged-over capture of this bird, found by chance, who shot down thru the screen like a bullet! I've even forgotten what time of day it was :(
Thank you for the obs/snaps, MICHAEL & OLAF - I would be lovely if I could find them.
