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.

Sandra P said:NC0 had a fly around just before 2am. It was silent and she didn't appear to be spooked by anything
I did everything possible with picture and sound to try to find what alerted her (cos she did lift her head as if in response to a sound)... to no avail.
And I've only just, on reading your post above, remembered to set the stream downloading again! I had internet outages of my own yesterday and it causes such disruption here

Birdies LG DU update.
Good morning all,
Laddie relieved NC0 of her overnight duty at approx. 5:15
At round 6:40, Laddie found the remnant of fish NC0 had discarded on the midnight changeover, he flew off with it
Off he went. He made a flight from the left then made a right turn to fly over the Loch
NC0 immediately came to the nest (flight from the birch area)
She is still incubating at time of posting

7:35 Laddie (fishless) came back to spend a few minutes on the nest with NC0
8:10 Laddie back to the nest with a stick
NC0 about to leave
Laddie took over incubation (note a few of NC0's moulted/preened out white feathers)

12:14 The wind is horrendous and it hasn't helped that an unringed intruder bothered NC0!

It flew off after dropping down (left)
I must go. BBL

Definitely down now:
I've switched off my downloader, to avoid multi-nothing-files while I'm napping. See y'all later.

That was my worry, Wendy. So pleased that she didn't leave the eggs to chase to the intruder!
