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.

It really does look such a beautiful snowy scene Sandra, I love the open views to the Loch.
I took this screenshot one morning last week

Oh that's beautiful, Mary! The ever-changing colours at Lowes are just amazing; I especially like the green/blue hues of late evening prior to the nightcam coming on - even better when Laddie and NC0 are on the nest, their white feathered areas appear to stand out even more!
This is mixed emotions times Sandra. excitement for them arriving safely home and dread that they don't, last year was the best year ever with a full house of returnees (with exception of Loch Insh female Green DY) lets hope its another repeat of last year.
Oh it really is...
Keeping everything crossed for them all, Mary
Posted on LotL Fb a short time ago. Hoping not too long to wait before the final box is ticked!
The snow is thawing quite quickly, at least we can now see some sticks!

Scylla, you mentioned the other day about whether the view appeared to be wider. I wonder if, in the bottom right corner of the screen, 'undergrowth' on the path leading down to the edge of the Loch has been cleared, making it look that way?

Yes, it was the right-hand side that I thought had stretched

Cam down and back up again with a new URL.

It's just the YouTube URL embedded in their website, JILL, so someone "out there" must change it when the cam goes down and back up.
I understood that if one is streaming only one live stream from one's channel, then one could keep the same URL thru all the downs 'n ups, but not a lot of people seem to know that...
