It was a nice night with the male learning to answer back to the calls of the female.  They copulated two or three times.  The female covered a large area of the Loch going across the stream and then flying back.

All was going well, except the male has hasn’t learned that he’s supposed to be more attentive later in the evening.  The female called for over an hour without his returning.  Our young male needs to learn to be a better boyfriend!
