Our osprey chicks Darach and Breac have been testing their wings with lots of flapping and helicoptering in the last few days. They may take their first proper flights any time!

Who will go first?

Watch them live here.👉 buff.ly/VKOC3h2

A raven turned up on our #LochArkaig ospreycam today, and had a lot to say for itself!

🔊 Sound up for some lovely kronking.🐦‍⬛

Our #LochArkaig ospreys inspire some wonderful art.

🎨 We love this watercolour of Louis and Dorcha by Pauline Conley 👏

When a fiery #meteor exploded in the night sky this week, our #LochArkaig osprey chicks slept on regardless. Their Mum looked around a little quizzically though!

Big excitement at #LochArkaig Pine Forest today with both Dorcha and Louis returning from migration.

Louis was ill last year and we were a bit concerned he might not make it back, so it was particularly sweet to see him just after 8pm.

Summer can now commence! #ArkaigOsprey

We put the drone up at Loch Arkaig PIne Forest during a temperature inversion.

There is a loch underneath there somewhere!

🦡 Anyone who has ever tip-toed across a deer or cattle grid will admire the nonchalance of this badger caught on trailcam at #LochArkaig Pine Forest 🔊 (sound up)

Skills! 👏

A sparrowhawk perched beside one of our #LochArkaig osprey nests for about 40 minutes today.

Don't get comfortable. Louis and Dorcha should be back around the end of the month.

There are now three of them so the cuteness is off the scale!

When the BTO ringer visited #LochArkaig this week he measured and ringed these adorable barn owls, as well as our ospreys.

They're so fluffy!

Dorcha is back!

Our female osprey touched down on her nest at #LochArkaig just before 12:22pm today. Looking fabulous.😍

Fingers crossed her mate Louis is not far behind.

In 2020 a group of viewers started counting the fish our osprey family brought to the #nestcam at #LochArkaig Pine Forest.

This week saw the arrival of the 2000th! 🧵 1/3

They're coming home!

Scotland's ospreys are beginning to return for the 2025 season. Our #LochArkaig #ospreycam page is now livestreaming from the nests 👉 buff.ly/Iai80sw

While we wait for Louis and Dorcha please enjoy these fantastic pics of Cairngorm ospreys taken by Bill Brown in past seasons.

Many thanks for all the names suggested for our osprey chicks. The panel of viewers has chosen "Darach" and "Breac" which are Gaelic for "oak" and "trout". Aren't they handsome! #ArkaigOsprey #nestcam #osprey #LochArkaig

Our 2 #LochArkaig osprey chicks were measured and ringed by @btoscotland.bsky.social yesterday and deemed to be boys! We are looking for name suggestions so tell us what you think before Sunday when we will choose. #ArkaigOsprey Watch the livestream 👉 buff.ly/G60OR4f
