Arrival dates
Laddie 21.3.21
NC0 25.3.21
It has been great to witness Laddie (LM12) and NC0 renew their bond and also begin to make a safe and cosy nest for impending eggs. It is encouraging to watch NC0 much more comfortable in her surroundings and hope that all continues goes well for them both from here on in.
11.4.21: Blog - NC0 lays an egg
14.4.21: Blog - NC0 lays her second egg
17.4.21: Blog - NC0 lays her third egg
In SANDRA's absence there's been a pesky corvid shouting on NC0's *** perch while Laddie was nestorising, then more disturbances by corvids heard, then faffing with the precious bark slabs, it got windy (what's new?) and I'm off again, I'll fill in with illustrations later if req'd.
RICHARD thinks I typed CJ7 by mistake - how could he?!

17:55 Laddie brought a large stick to the nest, he accidently placed it on NC0's back while landing
It's now in the middle of the nest

18:30 Both were on the nest, NC0 was quietly calling on occasions. She bowed down and Laddie attempted to mate her but she pecked at him twice and he flew away.
I think she needs a fish!
Perhaps NC0's not keen on the bark after all

April snow at Loch of the Lowes
Laddie to the nest, no fish. He stood in the centre for a short time then there was another attempt at mating but she gave him 'what-for'...again!
