Absolutely delighted to have watched three precious eggs being laid. Laddie and NC0 have perfected their incubation duties and, through trying times during April, defended them and the nest from multiple intruding Ospreys. Hopefully, it will not be too long until we see three chicks being cared for by their super parents.
IMAGICAT
She's got up at last and is squealingly taking the fish, which is probably the same one that she fed from earlier.
JaneV said:An informative blog from Lowes yesterday, I had not realised that NC0 was a relatively inexperienced young bird. Hopefully she will realise that the nest would be better once #3 is removed.
Jane, here is a blog, from early last season, which includes some information regarding NC0's origin

It did appear to be, Scylla - the family have fed well on it!
Oh no, we're in a buffer...
Laddie flew, another buffer.
And another, and the chicks are alone. I wonder if we're in a loop now.

I thought it look like she was feeding the chicks from a French stick, the first time, the flesh looked more like bread.
