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.
When the feed was over, NC0 flew off after vocalising quite loudly (fish calling rather than intruder alarm). Both she and Laddie arrived back at the nest, landing at the same time (19:53)
NC0 continued to shout
Laddie left the nest heading towards and then beyond the birch
