2022 return dates: LM12 (Laddie) - 13th March; NC0(16) - 23rd March
Looking forward to welcoming back Laddie and NC0 to this wonderful location at Loch of the Lowes. Will Laddie, in his 12th season, beat his earliest arrival date that he achieved last year? Will NC0, her 4th season, be heard before she is seen on cam? Could we see the return of their 2021 offspring, LR1 and LR2? Here's hoping they have safe, spring migrations so as to grace our screens once again.

I've had another downloader crash today, up to 6 hours lost on all cams. Pre-crash footage showed NC0 and Laddie standing together on the nest crying out for a zoom but none materialised, so I done a silly snap:
Richard and Scylla, thank you for the alerts that the cam was back online :)
Aww, such a sweet pic, Scylla, love the frame!
Sandra P said:love the frame!
From PhotoScape (the old version) - it's called Wedding! Not the sort of thing I usually go for
This cam went down shortly before my crash so I got the last 3-4 hours, so here's the NC0>>>Laddie fish episode:
Laddie couldn't believe his luck! lol
Thanks Scylla
24 March
First arrival to large perch @ 04:54, Laddie arrived after a while and mated.
I was in the midst of torrid time rebooting everything, not yet finished resetting-up.
Morning Scylla and all,
A calm and peaceful start to the day, lets hope that continues. Scene at present
Edit: 8:01 Mating
