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.
20:25 Good to see Laddie deliver a small but lively fish. It's the first time I've seen him at the nest since the last fish was brought in at 14:11
NC0 did have a bit of trouble keeping hold of it
Then decided to move to the other side of the nest, fish in talons, to begin the feed

Good morning Patily and all
What a cracking sized fish it was that Laddie brought to the nest at around 4:45
7:18 I can't see that Laddie has delivered another one. NC0 feeding #1 from the remainder of the fish
