Louis the Loch Arkaig Osprey does his demented penguin impression denying Dorcha a fish 16 Apr 2022

Check out their live camera supported by players of People's Postcode Lottery at https://www.woodlandtrust.org.uk/ospreys and on youtube:    • Loch Arkaig Osprey camera 1   Following a very big day on the nest 12th April (   • All the main events of the joyful day Loui...  ) with both Louis and Dorcha arriving, reuniting, mating and sharing a fish delivery too, things are settling into a routine. This clip shows Louis arriving with a headless trout, but not giving it to Dorcha. Instead he coy mantles with it, pretending to defend it from her.
