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.

You're welcome, Glider. :)
23:34 See you in the morning, NC0, I hope the calls of the honking geese don't keep you awake all night!

Laddie has landed, he's standing on the nest while NC0 remains on her perch.

A few minutes ago:
.
I don't know if this is a new URL or not, but just in case.
NC0 has been sleeping but has just looked up.
Morning Scylla and All,
Yes, you've posted the correct new URL - I had a rude awakening at 5:15 with an alert notification sent on my phone! lol
This from 6:17ish - NC0 had frost-covered feathers; Laddie, not as much
ENS at present
7:44 Laddie had been on the nest, grass was caught in his talons as he flew off
We'll have to see if they will be put back in their rightful place
7:56 NC0 pulled the grasses back from the edge
8:01
A busy day for me at home but will check in as and when I can. BFN
Well done, NC0! Unofficial time of the first egg laid, 9:33
