Loch of the Lowes Osprey Day 51,53&54 Fledge Watch Continues

I was all about the Scottish Wildlife Trust's Loch of the Lowes Osprey today, trying to catch FR4's fledge. Didn't happen! So, fledge watch continues. I did get some s'caps and an awesome video! First the video... Mom landed in the nest with a fish. One of the babies was out of the nest and came in hungry and missed the landing. You can hear it crashing through the branches and calling from below the nest. A short while later, it landed in the nest, none the worse for wear. Check out A Hit and A Miss (1:51):

And here's the s'caps. The nest is crowded when all 5 are home!

We got some nice close-ups!

Nice faces in this one.

Funny look. I think this is Dad...

Another nice close-up. Nice view of faces here.

Here's a link to their post about the fledgings.
