From little 'fluff balls' to almost fully grown ospreys, LR1 and LR2 are doing amazingly well all thanks to the fantastic ongoing care from NC0 and Laddie (LM12). Not only have we seen Laddie providing fish for his family but NC0 has been successful several times just recently as well - what first-class parents they are! There continues to be the occasional intrusion from ospreys passing through, however, the nest and chicks have been protected outstandingly. We look forward to the next exciting phase in the young ospreys' development.
Laddie delivered a fish around 19:25 - only LR2 and NC0 were on the nest at the time. Greenery was brought to the nest by NC0 a little earlier
LR2 returned at 20:00, flapping down from above the cam. NC0 had been giving an occasional soft call and appeared to be waiting for LR1 to come back for some fish. There was/is plenty of the remaining of it for her to be fed

Very weird, I've got no cut-off stream for it so I can't tell what time it went down. Screen version is current.

I watch on the LotL webcam page, no break in streaming at all on there - I can rewind a full 12 hours. That is odd!
scylla said:NC0 has just flown after a feed, leaving LR1 cheekily using her perch and LR2 having a post prandial lie-down.
It appears that NC0 is on the birch
21:19 NC0 flew back, landed above the cam (left of pic)
Started to rain heavily

Good morning all,
Patily, what a wonderful sequence of pictures, many thanks!
Two breakfish have been delivered by Laddie
6:40ish
NC0 feeding LR2
It took a little while but LR1 did come to be fed as shown in Patily's snaps. Down from above the cam - not her best landing
7:35ish Another fish from Laddie
Approx. 8:15, LR1 flew from the perch over to the birch...she landed on top of the left hand branch
9:50 I think LR1 is still be there - definitely movement on top of that branch. Sounds above the cam so possibly NC0 keeping her eye on LR2
A flight from above the cam (left of pic), heading over to the birch area
10:01 Laddie to the nest. LR1 back a little while after him, flying from the left branch of the birch
LR1 flight back behind the nest
