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.

Sorry Scylla, I didn't see your post at the time

No worries, SANDRA I'm glad to see a friendly face, am not recovered from staying awake too long trying to fill in on unreported cams.
scylla said:Whopper on the nest - I've only seen it "corner of eye". The fetcher is mantling now...
Was this the scene at that time, Scylla? NC0 mantled soon after landing
There was a fish delivery at 14:30(ish)
