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 ;)
IMAGICAT
12.10, Louis looked a bit scrawny at the last fish, he has eaten a chunk of this one. JJ6 jumps over JJ7 to get the fish but JJ7 grabs it from JJ6. Not to be thwarted, JJ6 takes it back. JJ7 didn't put up much of a fight. Ian

Loved this video Geemeff, and the split screen one was very different as well

12.34, Aila is just about to take the fish from JJ6 when a muckle military plane flies low heading down the loch. Aila takes off in pursuit! When Aila returns JJ6 is not inclined to give up the fish. Ian
EDIT - 13.02, JJ6 finally relinquishes the fish. Aila takes it and starts feeding JJ7 & 8, but there isn't much to go round.
Pleased you're enjoying my video clips! Here are a couple more:
Vera's off the screen helicopter 15.37.
Slo-Mo: The RAF spook Aila 12.34
17.40, JJ8 is eating a bit of fish. I am having real bother with my computer so can't really look back to see the delivery etc. If someone else could I would be most obliged. Ian

Super, GEEMEFF !!! Thank you to you and LIZ B
Yesterday I snapped the 2 cutie-pie overnight stayers:
And a night-flyer:
Here they were (JJ8 standing) as Mama arrived last night:
Aila flew @ 03:06, JJ8 was standing the whole time.
JJ6 turned up @ 04:32 and some melees followed
No fish yet, when I checked a couple of minutes ago.
