Laddie (LM12) and NC0 have continued their excellent partnership from last season, not only with the incubation of their three beautiful eggs but also in defending the nest, and area, from intruding Ospreys.
During the middle of this month, all being well, we will witness three gorgeous chicks hatching and being lovingly cared for by their wonderful parents. Here’s hoping that fine weather, abundant deliveries of fish from Laddie, as well as NC0’s feeding skills, will see the little ones thrive.

Sandra P said:Scylla, did you notice Laddie's right eye during the defending vid this morning?
Coincidentally (1) He probably caught it off me, I've had a dodgy right eye for a few days, and (2) I've just finished a video of the occasion - no captions, but I was wondering (again!) whether it was anything to be concerned about. Egg included.
More to check.

But no more revelations.
Many thanks Scylla. I hope your poorly eye gets better very soon.
19:33 NC0 is fish shouting!
19:37 Could that be Laddie on the birch feeding post?
