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.

Cathy said:What wonderful coverage Sandra, thank you.
My pleasure, Cathy! Fingers crossed NC0 will lay egg #2 tomorrow
NC0 returned at 19:05
A slight barge as Laddie was rising
I couldn't capture Laddie's fly-away as the LS 'jumped'

20:00 Oh dear Laddie, NC0 isn't very pleased with you for not bringing her a fish! He'd flown round from beyond the birch corner
NC0 was fish calling
Is that his apologetic look? lol
NC0 stood up, still nattering away
He settled on the egg
That didn't last long
Laddie left the nest at 20:07
20:37 A lovely, calm evening
20:45 Laddie returned, no fish
Night cam came on 20:47
He made a couple of contact calls before leaving at 20:54

I just checked my download - exactly the same.
(I've given up on the screen-capture, we're sure to get mega-buffering tomorrow when everyone's expecting another egg.)

Yes Karen, #2 should be here today if all goes according to plan
Cam zoomed in at 8:40
8:48 Laddie arrived
Still 1 egg
NC0 took a break
