No natural connections today due to pressures of work. However the web is providing high drama with the regular male Osprey now returned to its nest at Loch Garten having previously been displaced. In the interim, a rival male has kicked his eggs out of the nest (and presumably mated with the female). I seem to remember a similar scenario two or three years ago. I think it ended with the original male successfully rearing the interlopers offspring. In other years, the confusion and delay led to the complete failure of the breeding attempt.

"The grand show is eternal. It is always sunrise somewhere; the dew is never dried all at once; a shower is forever falling; vapor is ever rising. Eternal sunrise, eternal dawn and gloaming, on sea and continents and islands, each in its turn, as the round earth rolls".
