Although they didn’t use the webcam nest last year, Laddie and new female, NC0, successfully raised one chick within the vicinity of the Loch. Blog hereHoping that both have a safe migration back to Lowes, and delight us with their presence on cam this season.

I am trying to find a frontal view of last years intruder Sandra, to compare but cannot find one. Even from your one though I think she looks the same.

I've scrolled back to when NC0 left the nest at approximately 14:55. She saw a crow land in a far right tree and went after it, she then flew back towards the cam and must have landed on the nest tree, above the cam - there was a slight 'jolt'
The crow had made a hasty retreat when seeing her coming
