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.

Sounded like a Barn Owl screech, 21:04
Looking through scroll back, there have been no nest visits today. Such awful weather at Lowes!
An osprey has just arrived on a branch of dead tree
Morning Olaf and all
7:48ish It flew from the tree and past the nest calling as it went - must have been the juvenile

Oh what a mess! But thank you, OLAF and SANDRA!
I was looking for Sandra's final snap when I happened upon the Osprey with fish, then when I was trying to work out where it slotted in my editor crashed. The dear (free) editor doesn't do that very often but I had been making SO many cuts and to's and fro's, one can't blame it. So I had to find the osp+fish all over again and stuck it on the end in desperation.
When doing the sound I was amazed at the osprey voices nearly all the way thru - I couldn't hear anything on the original - but had to take out some very loud background noises - scuse the recurrent distortions but that's what happens when messing inexpertly with sound
(When will we get something from scylla without excuses? I hear y'all ask!)
IMAGICAT
I hope all is well with SANDRA today
Hi Scylla,
Yes all is well, just had to deal with family matters today
Thank you for a super video, fantastic that you caught the Osprey with the fish...Laddie do you think?
On 'n off in a flash! (Well you try matching the colour )
Oops, got lost - I think I've done up to 15:00. There was a bird on the dead tree but I don't think it was an osprey, and when it flew towards us it disappeared in the trees, not seen over water.

I was surprised to see it flying in that direction, tho :-/
