A brief update tonight: the family have shown well today at the hide. Both chicks again enjoying the dry sunny conditions and getting more expert by the day at controlling those massive wings. Breagha's wing will be close to 8 feet across and Mara's only a little less. Today they were sparring good naturedly high above the forest, touching talons and giving chase whilst Frisa and Skye sat contentedly on the ridge, drying out in the warm sun after overnight rain. They've earned this time for a little R&R and are using it wisely to practice survival skills for the difficult months ahead which will surely come. 

Great news too, just in, of a chick from Mull, which with his brother, survived one of the most remarkable incidents we've ever recorded on Mull when their nest (with them in it) quite simply disappeared from a cliff face in a violent storm. Their full story tomorrow...

  • Hi everyone, all my LG bloggers, Sixy here come to join you. I have been reading the blogs over the last two weeks and aren't they brilliant. Dave, I agree with the rest, you really make your stories interesting. I love ravens as well, they are so intelligent, the look in their eyes is almost human (an intelligent human!). The family of sea eagles seem really close, the parents seem to really look after and care for the young ones. How long do they stay together? I don't know anything about them so will look forward to visiting this site to learn more. It will give me something else to think about when Nethy and Deshar leave our shores. You are lucky you lot living so close to all these beautiful raptors. Look forward to the next blog.
