I'm starting this thread in case it's not possible for MARY to do it due to the first-of-the-month freeze-up.
Aila, Louis and their 3 chicks are flourishing, with Louis proving a great provider to the biggest family he's had so far.
I might add some snaps 'n things if I last a bit longer, but let's get the thread on the road first ;)

Thanks Geemeff, suffice to say the RSPB site was not at fault. Ian

15.57, Aila jumps down from the camera in anticipation of a fish which Louis duly delivers. Louis leaves in a hurry and Aila is looking skyward. Aila leaves alarm calling and the chicks pancake. Aila comes back soon, fortunately for JJ6 he was lying on the fish so got the first go at it. Ian
