What a sight for sore eyes :))

It sure is!  Thank you, CLARE! 

Wot?!  No nest preparation?  Certainly not when compared to Richard's ministrations in 2013 - EJ was quite flummoxed by all the bedding ;-D

Moffer - thanks for the link to Carnyx main page which I can access.  Must be something amiss with my old link but that doesn't matter now.  Thanks again.

Karen, you are not alone. Unlike all the other sites my 'old' LG link did not work.

It doesn't look as if they have filled in the two holes in the nest.

 In fact there hasn't been any preparation at all. 

Thanks for the memory, Scylla

I agree Brenda, looks the same as we left it last year, plus there is no sound :(

See the difference :o

VLC:

CARNYX:

Blimey, Scylla.  That's quite a difference.

Here's the picture at the moment:

I can't remember how to get my VLC snapshots to save in my 2016 file!  Unemployment is not good for the memory.

I hope this helps, CLARE:

From the Menu bar, Tools>Preferences.

You should see:

Click on Video and use the Browse to find your 2016 folder.

Thanks, Birdie and Scylla - that was spot on.

I've only just noticed that BIRDIE had already solved CLARE's problem perfectly clearly - sorry about that :-(

I was recording the nest with VLC all day but at some point after the campost's shadow was well and truly on the nest, it froze - I didn't notice cos I've got VLC minimised.

It was encouraging tho, to refresh the stream and see what a good nightcam we have tonight:
