Chick #3 - 22.5.21 (35 days) The third chick has hatched at Loch of the Lowes
25.5.21 - Chick 3 passed away Sad news about our third chick
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.

Good morning all
Chicks have had a couple of feeds already from what I can tell. First around 4:15 from the fish piece that had been on the nest overnight - Laddie did attempt to eat from it but NC0 had other ideas.
The second, was from a fresh one delivered by Laddie at about 7:10
I'm away for most of today but hope to catch up with any news this early this evening. BFN

Oh! Little Bobbie has Welsh blood
SANDRA - I've done you a video covering much of the day - but YouTube seems to have gone on strike, I've tried 3 times to upload it, even doing a re-conversion in case there was something wrong... I have to take a break now, will try again asap.
EDIT

Oh bless you Scylla! Thank you so much

When he took flight, he disappeared from view then glided over on the left side and made a right turn to land in a tree behind the nest
