Just as we had hoped, the middle of May proved to be a wonderful time with three successful hatches. Laddie, with his prolific fishing skills, is providing extremely well for his family and NC0’s attentive feeding for all three Osplets, is an absolute joy to watch! Let's hope everything continues to go well.

There have been two intruder alerts from NC0 - one at 7:23 the other at 7:30
NC0 is currently off the nest. Chick 1 looked up towards the cam (7:35), perhaps she's on there

7:48 LADDIE AND FISH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! NC0 was screeching...what a wonderful sound to hear!
She flapped down from the cam post
#1 did attempt to take the fish but NC0 pulled it towards her while still in Laddie's talons
Off he went. Oh it's so good to see you Laddie!
Aggression shown from #1 to #2. I do hope #2 manages to get some bites.
Edit: Yes, #2 is receiving some too
I must be off to work. BBL
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.
Thanks Patily. Here's the delivery at 11:17ish
