Second egg at Poole Harbour. First egg must have been laid on Sunday.

Doesn't look like much is happening at Loch of the Lowes. Nest untidy and looks unattended. Still hope though.

Bird sitting on nest at Loch of the Lowes. Going by chest markings it is a female. Could be sitting on eggs - will need to wait and see.
Poole Harbour has four eggs - will be hard for the youngest of the chicks when they hatch.

No eggs Loch of the Lowes yet. Usually is by this time, maybe a young pair.
Loch Arkaig has three eggs

Yes there is an egg at Loch of the Lowes. However there doesn't appear to be much incubating going on. The female is spending quite a bit of time standing around away from the eggs. Must be a young inexperienced female. Time will tell if the egg is viable.
