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.

21st July - NC0 made an appearance on the nest, her first visit since 19th April

scylla said: And I've been wondering what you'd have to say about voices, but I thought that as the Glaslyn family (minus KC2) is still here, and Laddie and NC0's chick must surely have hatched/fledged later, is it too early for them to have gone?
-------------------------------------------------------------
You've made a good point there, Scylla, re the hatch and fledge timeline. Hopefully, the team at Lowes will confirm with a 'last date seen' blog in the near future
I've scrolled through the footage from early this morning up 'til now and haven't found any visits to the nest
Me too, SANDRA :)
The stream has been dropping out a lot. Seems OK for now.
Found another bit to check.
The crucial area without glare ;)
A night flyer, not a bat:

After going through scroll back from 8:00, there haven't been any visits to the nest as far as I could tell

Nothing from me up to 05:30-ish - on the same terms
Once again, no visits to the nest today I think Laddie and the juvenile have left. Comparing Loch Arkaig to Lowes, 3 eggs at LA were laid at between 23rd/29th April (two juveniles have already migrated) - this could have been a possible time frame for NC0 to have produced egg(s)?

Yes, still buffering - I have to shut down my monitor so I won't have anything for many hours cos I'm packing up now :'(
Now :(
