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.

20:00 A dive from the birch and successful catch by NC0!
She had flown from the cam post to the birch
She was on there for under 20 seconds before making her dive - the tree blocked the splashdown.
Out of the Loch
On her way back to the nest, heading low behind the trees
Well done, NC0! 2 days earlier than last year for bringing back her first fish to the nest for the chicks!

What a girl she is!! I wonder if she could see some fish in that area from the cam post?
I did a video Sandra.

Hi Mary, thank you so very much! I loved the chicks' surprised reaction when realising that NC0 landed on the nest with the fish! lol
It's good to 'see' you!
