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.

Definitely down now:

I left the LS on pause when I went back to work after my lunch break. I have an additional 3 hours or so to check through, from the intruder visit, before the streaming went down.
I'll post what I find and will also edit in some more pics of the intruder event.
Aaarrrggghhh! My computer crashed and all the screenshots I'd added to an already 'autosaved' document disappeared! I've edited in two snaps, that I took at lunchtime, to the intruder visit post.
An update of events (from memory!) - Laddie arrived on the nest to be with NC0 10 minutes after the intruder event, he didn't stay long. He came back around 43 minutes prior to the end of streaming, once again he left leaving NC0 incubating. She was fish calling at the time. Nothing else occurred as far as I could tell.
The LS came back on just over 5 minutes ago - NC0 incubating

Very sorry, SANDRA
This is the new URL, just in case anyone needs it.
IMAGICAT
Just so frustrating, Scylla
In addition to Scylla's video re the intrusion of the blue ringed Osprey on Sunday (25.4.21), SWT has a YT vid of the same event. The Osprey was identified as KN8

18:45 Fish delivery!
NC0 carried it off in her beak
Sandra P said:12:14 The wind is horrendous and it hasn't helped that an unringed intruder bothered NC0!
Quarter speed - without stopping, due to duty list I can't tell if they physically smacked into each other or not:
Laddie arrived less than 10 minutes later and stayed about 3 minutes, then came back again and I've forgotten how long he stayed - but NC0 remained incubating until the cam went down here.
Oh, you are an absolute treasure, Scylla!!!
19:43 NC0 back to incubate. Before landing on the nest, she had flown (at speed!) from beyond the birch area, past the back of the nest then over the Loch and round behind the nest tree to arrive
Laddie was up immediately and took flight
20:43 NC0 is being very vocal - more a fish 'ordering' call rather than an alarm
20:57 A rather large fish delivery from Laddie - granted, there was a bit of dangly skin at one end of it!
Good to see Laddie with a full crop!
