All three nests I am Watching now have three eggs, Still need to find out the laying date at New Poole Harbour.

Dorcha lying in the nest cup. Looks as if she is incubating. On investigation looks like she laid her first egg yesterday.

Louis and Dorcha both on the nest. Its gae drecht - rain, windy and possible sleet/snow. Both birds look miserable.

Dorcha is spending more and more time on the nest. Are we getting close to egg-laying? Nest at Poole harbour looks like it needs a little more attention. There is a piece of black polytene flapping at one side of the nest. Hope it doesn't put the birds off. Don't think it should - they have been mat...

Louis just brought in a half eaten fish for Dorcha. He gave it up very easily.

NC0 laid her third egg yesterday at Loch of the Lowes.

Plenty of moss and lichen in the nest cup at Loch Arkaig. Maybe laying is not too far off.

New Poole Harbour

Louis and Dorcha are both on the nest at Loch Arkaig.
