I am satisfiesd that the Gaels now that they have been alerted to the significance of the loons will have no difficulty in keeping Jemmerling away from the nest until the chicks are ready to fly.
After all they spotted the explorers within a short time of them trespassing on to the deer ground even though they didn't try and catch them right away. Nights in northern Scotland are very short, it is not quite the land of the midnight sun, but it never really gets dark up there in June and July so spotting nocturnal interlopers would not be hard.
