Last month, we saw all three chicks hatch but unfortunately, the third one very sadly passed away after surviving for just over two full days. Laddie and NC0 continue to nurture their two remaining chicks. Long may the good weather, as well as Laddie’s effective hunting, persist so we can continue to watch these wonderful osplets thrive.
Evening all, it's been a very busy day for me so not had a chance to check on the nest. So pleased the clump has been moved out of the nest cup!
19:10(ish) Laddie delivered a headless fish
Synchronised wing stretches from the chicks
Close to the end of the feed. The chicks have altered so much

Wow! Another successful dive by Laddie seen from the birch just before 20:30 (he did the same from that spot to catch the last fish delivery yesterday evening). Fish delivered to the nest
Both with very full crops at the end of the feed. What fantastic parents Laddie and NC0 are!
21:00 Laddie visited the nest. No fish remained for him to take so he flew off
21:32 NC0 went for a break. Sounded like she landed above the cam on her return
21:39 She flapped down to the nest to be with her babies
21:55 Just perfect...
