Link to Glaslyn March/April 2023
Following the failure of the irreplaceable MrsG to return this season, Aran was very fortunate to be adopted by Elen, whom Glider had already met at Llyn Brenig - she is a deceptively shy female who has quickly bonded with Aran and all of us.

They have 2 eggs:

I've got tech probs but this was late last evening:
And I've just recorded this from rollback, very hasty, cropped - HATCH #1
The last I saw, Aran hadn't yet been in.
7:18ish, Aran was standing on the right edge of the nest. Welcome little one, it was very wobbly hence the slight blur.
Still waiting for Aran to bring a fish

First Chick for Aran and Elen
Actually, hate to ask, but seeing the performance of Elen and fish and trying to get a beak full into the little one - did she manage a feed please anyone ?
Apparently, from chat, Bob #1 had its first proper feed at 11:08
